Description
The Get-CMConflictingRecord cmdlet gets one or more conflicting Configuration Manager record objects.
When Configuration Manager recognizes a new client, it uses hardware information to check whether it previously created a record for that computer. For example, you might have reinstalled the operating system. The previous client record still exists with the same hardware information. If you manually resolve conflicts, you have the option to merge the new record with the existing record, create a new record, or create a record as a blocked record. You can also configure Configuration Manager to resolve conflicts automatically.
You can use this cmdlet with the Block-CMConflictingRecord cmdlet or the Merge-CMConflictingRecord cmdlet. You can get all the outstanding conflicts for Configuration Manager or specify a conflict by name or by ID.
Note
Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.
Examples
Example 1: Get all conflicting records
PS XYZ:\> Get-CMConflictingRecord
This command gets all the unresolved conflicts for Configuration Manager.
Example 2: Get a named conflicting record
PS XYZ:\> Get-CMConflictingRecord -Name "CR07"
This command gets a conflict named CR07.
