Detailed Description

The Enable-CMTaskSequence cmdlet enables a Microsoft System Center 2012 Configuration Manager task sequence. A task sequence includes configuration and operating system deployment settings for a System Center 2012 Configuration Manager client computer. You can use the Disable-CMTaskSequence cmdlet to disable a task sequence. When you disable a task sequence, System Center 2012 Configuration Manager no longer advertises the sequence to clients.

You can specify a name or ID to enable a specific sequence or use the Get-CMTaskSequence cmdlet to obtain a sequence to enable. To enable a sequence only if it has a particular security scope, you can specify a security scope along with a name or ID.

Parameters

-InputObject<IResultObject>

Specifies a task sequence object. To obtain a task sequence object, use the Get-CMTaskSequence cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1: Enable a specific task sequence

This command enables the task sequence that has an ID of CM100008.

PS C:\> Enable-CMTaskSequence -Id "CM100008"

Example 2: Enable a task sequence by using a variable

This example enables a task sequence.

The first command uses the Get-CMTaskSequence cmdlet to get the task sequence that has an ID of CM100007 and stores it in the $CMTS variable.

The second command enables the sequence stored in $CMTS.

PS C:\> $CMTS = Get-CMTaskSequence -Id "CM100007"PS C:\> Enable-CMTaskSequence -InputObject $CMTS
