Description

The Update-SCOMLocation cmdlet updates the display name, latitude, and longitude of a location. You can get a location to update by using the Get-SCOMLocation cmdlet. You can create a location by using the New-SCOMLocation cmdlet.

By default, this cmdlet uses the active persistent connection to a management group. Use the SCSession parameter to specify a different persistent connection. You can create a temporary connection to a management group by using the ComputerName and Credential parameters. For more information, type Get-Help about_OpsMgr_Connections.

Examples

Example 1: Update a location

PowerShell 
PS C:\>Get-SCOMLocation -DisplayName "Los Angeles, CA" | Update-SCOMLocation -Latitude 33.942809 -Longitude -118.4047064

This command updates the latitude and longitude of the location Los Angeles, CA. The command uses the Get-SCOMLocation cmdlet to get the location with the specified display name and passes the result to the Update-SCOMLocation cmdlet by using the pipeline operator. The Update-SCOMLocation command updates the latitude and longitude of the location.
