How to Set the Restore-Only Mode for a State Migration Point
In Configuration Manager, you configure the operating system deployment state migration point to reject new requests to store user data by setting the SMPQuiesceState embedded property.
SMPQuiesceState has two possible values.
Value | Definition |
---|---|
0 | Restore-only mode is turned off. |
1 | Restore-only mode is turned on. |
To set the restore only mode for a state migration point
Set up a connection to the SMS Provider. For more information, see SMS Provider fundamentals.
Make a connection to the state migration point resources section of the site control file.
Get the embedded properties.
Update SMPQuiesceState.
Commit the changes to the site control file.
Example
The following example method sets the restore-only mode based on supplied value.
For information about calling the sample code, see Calling Configuration Manager Code Snippets.
Sub SetRestoreOnlyMode(connection, _
context, _
siteCode, _
enableRestoreOnlyMode)
' Load site control file and get SMS State Migration Point section.
connection.ExecMethod "SMS_SiteControlFile.Filetype=1,Sitecode=""" & siteCode & """", "Refresh", , , context
Query = "SELECT * FROM SMS_SCI_SysResUse " & _
"WHERE RoleName = 'SMS State Migration Point' " & _
"AND SiteCode = '" & siteCode & "'"
Set SCIComponentSet = connection.ExecQuery(Query, , , context)
' Only one instance is returned from the query.
For Each SCIComponent In SCIComponentSet
' Display state migration point server name.
wscript.echo "SMS State Migration Point Server: " & SCIComponent.NetworkOSPath
' Loop through the array of embedded property instances.
For Each vProperty In SCIComponent.Props
' Setting: SMPQuiesceState
If vProperty.PropertyName = "SMPQuiesceState" Then
wscript.echo " "
wscript.echo vProperty.PropertyName
wscript.echo "Current value " & vProperty.Value
' Modify the value.
vProperty.Value = enableRestoreOnlyMode
wscript.echo "New value " & enableRestoreOnlyMode
End If
Next
' Update the component in your copy of the site control file. Get the path
' to the updated object, which could be used later to retrieve the instance.
Set SCICompPath = SCIComponent.Put_( , context)
Next
' Commit the change to the actual site control file.
Set InParams = connection.Get("SMS_SiteControlFile").Methods_("CommitSCF").InParameters.SpawnInstance_
InParams.SiteCode = siteCode
connection.ExecMethod "SMS_SiteControlFile", "CommitSCF", InParams, , context
End Sub
public void SetRestoreOnlyMode(
WqlConnectionManager connection,
string server,
string siteCode,
bool enableRestoreOnlyMode)
{
try
{
// Get the site control file.
IResultObject ro = connection.GetInstance("SMS_SCI_SysResUse.FileType=2,ItemName='[\"Display=\\\\" + server + "\\\"]MSWNET:[\"SMS_SITE=" + siteCode + "\"]\\\\" + server + "\\,SMS State Migration Point',ItemType='System Resource Usage',SiteCode='" + siteCode + "'");
// Get the embedded properties.
Dictionary<string, IResultObject> embeddedProperties = ro.EmbeddedProperties;
// Set the restore only mode.
embeddedProperties["SMPQuiesceState"]["Value"].BooleanValue = enableRestoreOnlyMode;
ro.EmbeddedProperties = embeddedProperties;
// Commmit the changes.
ro.Put();
}
catch (SmsException e)
{
Console.WriteLine("Failed to set restore only mode" + e.Message);
throw;
}
}
The example method has the following parameters:
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
connection |
- Managed: WqlConnectionManager - VBScript: SWbemServices |
A valid connection to the SMS Provider. |
context (VBScript) |
- VBScript: SWbemContext |
A valid context object. For more information, see How to Add a Configuration Manager Context Qualifier by Using WMI. |
server |
- Managed: String - VBScript: String |
The Configuration Manager server that the state migration point is running on. |
siteCode |
- Managed: String - VBScript: String |
The Configuration Manager site code. |
enableRestoreOnlyMode |
- Managed: Boolean - VBScript: Integer |
Sets the restore only mode. - Managed: true turns restore only mode on; otherwise false .- VBScript: 1 turns restore mode on; otherwise 0 . |
