Hint: The execution of these examples requires a connected PowerShell drive. |
The first example checks, if the Computer WIN10-02 has an associated User:
|
$MyComputer = Get-EmdbComputer "emdb:\rootDSE\Managed Users & Computers\solys.local\Chicago\ITService\Workstations\WIN10-02" Test-EmdbAssociation -AssociationType ComputerAssociatedUser -Source $MyComputer |
The types of Associations are valid for a specific type of object can be determined by calling the GetAssociationTypeNames()-method of an object.
In the following example we test, if the Patch-Package "Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1607 x64 (KB3213522)" is reported missing for at least one Computer of the DSM environment:
|
$MyPatch = Get-EmdbSoftwarePackage "Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1607 x64 (KB3213522)" -Recurse Test-EmdbAssociation -AssociationType ComputerMissingPatch -Target $MyPatch |
Finally in the last example, we test if the Software-Package "Adobe Reader X" is a component of the Software-Set "Windows 7 Baseline":
|
$MyPackage = Get-EmdbSoftwarePackage "Adobe Reader X" -Recurse $MySoftwareSet = Get-EmdbSoftwarePackage "Windows 7 Baseline" -Recurse Test-EmdbAssociation -AssociationType SwSetComponents -Source $MySoftwareSet -Target $MyPackage |
