Clear out the Unprovisioned Collection in 2007

Posted: 24 Apr 2013 05:17 PM PDT

Do you have issues with unprovisioned machines that stick around. Here is some code to help you get rid of the unprovisioned machines. This can be run at differnet intervals during the day or week depending on when you see it. This is old that is in Vbscript. Hopefully I can get going in powershell and get with the program. :)

============================
Dim Args
Dim swbemLocator, SWbemServices, objCollection, oProviderLocation, oLocation
Dim strComputerName, arrComputers, objComputer, sCollectionIDs
Dim objDirectRule
Dim strmessage, objshell

'CollectionIDs from which to remove the computer
sCollectionIDs = "ABC0019D"
'------------------------------------------------------------

'------------------------------------------------------------
'Main script
set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
    Set swbemLocator = CreateObject("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")
    swbemLocator.Security_.AuthenticationLevel = 6 'Packet Privacy.
    Set swbemServices = swbemLocator.ConnectServer(".", "root\SMS")
    Set oProviderLocation = swbemServices.InstancesOf("SMS_ProviderLocation")
    For Each oLocation In oProviderLocation
        If oLocation.ProviderForLocalSite = True Then
            Set swbemServices = swbemLocator.ConnectServer(oLocation.Machine, "root\sms\site_" + oLocation.SiteCode)
        End If
    Next
Set arrComputers = SWbemServices.ExecQuery("select * from SMS_R_System WHERE Unknown=1")
For Each objComputer In arrComputers
   'DElete special..this will delete the machine from the system
   objComputer.Delete_
Next
Set SWbemServices = Nothing
Set SWbemLocator = Nothing

Wscript.Quit

Clear out OSD collections in 2007

Posted: 24 Apr 2013 05:08 PM PDT

Do you have OSD collections in 2007 that you drop machines into for imaging. What happens when a machine fails to image completely or send the completion code and remove from the collection. Well they say in an users see that "Operating System Deployment is ready..." so here is some code to help you remove computers from a collection, create a task on the primary site to run at a given time:

    set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
    Set swbemLocator = CreateObject("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")
    swbemLocator.Security_.AuthenticationLevel = 6 'Packet Privacy.
    Set swbemServices = swbemLocator.ConnectServer("US1153SCCMC03", "root\sms\site_C03")
    sCollectionIDs = "ABC00052:ABC00054:ABC00053:ABC00055"
    mCollectionID = Split (sCollectionIDs, ":")

for i = Lbound(mCollectionID) to UBound(mCollectionID)
    query= "SELECT ResourceID FROM SMS_CM_Res_Coll_" & mCollectionID(i)
    Set arrComputers = SWbemServices.ExecQuery(query)
    For Each objComputer In arrComputers
       RemoveCollectionMembership objComputer.ResourceID,mCollectionID(i)
    Next
Next
Set objCollection = Nothing
Set SWbemServices = Nothing
Set SWbemLocator = Nothing
'-*-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sub RemoveCollectionMembership(intresourceid,CollectionID)
on error resume next
set objCollection = SWbemServices.Get("SMS_Collection='" & CollectionID & "'")
set ObjDirectRule = SWbemServices.Get("SMS_CollectionRuleDirect").SpawnInstance_
ObjDirectRule.ResourceID = intresourceid
ObjCollection.DeleteMembershipRule objDirectRule
End Sub
