Powershell to set Full Device Schedule in SCCM 2012

[MarshMan0331]

Need help with how to set " Schedule a full update on this collection" for Device collections.

I have a PowerShell script that creates over 90 Device collections for our environment in the Test lab right now.

I can set all the setting I need even "Incremental updates" but I cannot figure out how to set a full schedule in the PowerShell Script.

 

looking for any help.

 

Thank You.

I've fiddled around with this also and have never found a way to set that property. This is a collection I created with that option set in the gui. But that is not reflected when I run the Get-CMDeviceCollection cmdlet

I am having the same issue, has anyone found a way to enable and schedule this in mass with powershell? I have a few thousand collections that I need to enable this option.

Take a look at this post, where David explains exactly this: http://www.david-obrien.net/2013/07/23/how-to-edit-configmgr-packages-update-on-schedule/

Hi,

 

thanks Peter for pointing to my blog!

In case you haven't fixed it until now (I'm going to look into that issue later tonight I guess)... I believe, without knowing exactly, that that refreshschedule for collections should work exactly the way it does for packages.

However, I will look into it later...

I just remembered that I wanted to look into this and now I did:

http://www.david-obrien.net/2013/10/12/how-to-configure-full-update-collection-in-configmgr-with-powershell/

$Schedule = New-CMSchedule -Start "10/30/2013 12:00 AM" -RecurInterval Days -RecurCount 1
New-CMDeviceCollection -Name "TEST-Collection Schedule" -LimitingCollectionName "All Systems" -RefreshSchedule $Schedule -RefreshType Periodic

The above works in my 2012 R2 lab, but I cannot get it to work in production on 2012 SP1.

 

Is the code specific to R2? Mainly the -RefreshSchedule parameter?

 

 

If I use New-CMDeviceCollection to create a series of collections, they are created with no update type enabled. Neither schedule or incremental. I was able to use your powershell code from the link above to set a schedule, however the box to actually enable the schedule is still unchecked.

 

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,
