Description

The Set-CMDistributionPointGroup cmdlet changes the configuration settings of a distribution point group.

Note

Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.

Examples

Example 1: Rename a distribution point group

This command renames the distribution point group DpgDept01 to DPG01.

PowerShell 
Set-CMDistributionPointGroup -Name "DpgDept01" -NewName "DPG01"

Example 2: Add a description to a distribution point group

This example first gets a distribution point group object with the Get-CMDistributionPointGroup cmdlet. It passes that object using the pipeline operator, and adds a description.

PowerShell 
Get-CMDistributionPointGroup -Name "DPG01" | Set-CMDistributionPointGroup -Description "Core distribution points, contact JQPublic"
