Description

The Set-SCBaseline cmdlet modifies a baseline by adding or removing updates or assignment scopes. A baseline is a list of updates which, together with scope assignments, can grade the compliance of required updates for Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) fabric servers.

Examples

Example 1: Modify an existing baseline by adding updates and an assignment scope

PS C:\> $Cluster = Get-SCVMHostCluster -Name "Cluster01"
PS C:\> $Baseline = Get-SCBaseline -Name "Security Baseline"
PS C:\> $Update = Get-SCUpdate -SecurityBulletinId "MS05-055"
PS C:\> Set-SCBaseline -Baseline $Baseline -AddUpdates $Update -AddAssignmentScope $Cluster

The first command gets the cluster object named Cluster01 and stores the object in the $Cluster variable.

The second command gets the baseline object named Security Baseline and stores the object in the $Baseline variable.

The third command gets the security bulletin update object named MS05-051 and stores the object in the $Update variable.

The last command adds the update stored in $Update (MS05-051) to the baseline stored in $Baseline (Security Baseline) and sets the assignment scope to the object stored in $Cluster (Cluster01).

Example 2: Remove an update and an assignment scope from an existing baseline

PS C:\> $Cluster = Get-SCVMHostCluster -Name "Cluster01"
PS C:\> $Baseline = Get-SCBaseline -Name "Security Baseline"
PS C:\> $Update = Get-SCUpdate -SecurityBulletinId "MS05-055"
PS C:\> Set-SCBaseline -Baseline $Baseline -RemoveUpdates $Update -RemoveAssignmentScope $Cluster

The first command gets the cluster object named Cluster01 and stores the object in the $Cluster variable.

The second command gets the baseline object named Security Baseline and stores the object in the $Baseline variable.

The third command gets the security bulletin update object named MS05-051 and stores the object in the $Update variable.

The last command removes the update stored in $Update (MS05-051) from the baseline stored in $Baseline (Security Baseline) and removes the assignment scope stored in $Cluster (Cluster01).

Parameters

-Baseline

Specifies a VMM baseline object.

Type:Baseline
Position:0
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Description

States a description for the specified object.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-JobGroup

Specifies an identifier for a series of commands that will run as a set just before the final command that includes the same job group identifier runs.

Type:Guid
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-JobVariable

Specifies that job progress is tracked and stored in the variable named by this parameter.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Name

Specifies the name of a VMM object.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False

Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-RunAsynchronously

Indicates that the job runs asynchronously so that control returns to the command shell immediately.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named

-StartNow

Identifies the last command of a jobgroup and starts running the commands within the jobgroup. This parameter must be used with the JobGroup parameter.

Outputs

Baseline

This cmdlet returns a Baseline object.
