Description

The New-WdsClient cmdlet creates a pre-staged client, which is an account for a computer within Active Directory® Domain Services (AD DS). Use pre-staged clients to provision computer accounts before a server that runs Windows Deployment Services installs a version of the Windows operating system on the computer. To create a pre-staged client, specify the GUID, media access control (MAC) address, or Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) identifier associated with the computer, and a name for the computer.

You can also specify the following:

  • A server that runs Windows Deployment Services. The client contacts this server for the network boot program and boot image.
  • Whether the client prompts the user to boot in the Pre-Boot Execution Environment (PXE).
  • A boot image for the client.
  • A Windows Deployment Services answer file for the client.
  • Whether the client joins a domain, the user account that joins the computer to the domain, and the join rights to granted to that user.
  • If Windows Deployment Services server is domain joined, the domain and organizational unit (OU) in which to create the computer account. If you do not specify this information, the cmdlet creates the account in the default computer container in the domain that the Windows Deployment Services server belongs to.

Examples

Example 1: Create a pre-staged client

PS C:\> New-WdsClient -DeviceID "5a7a1def-2e1f-4a7b-a792-ae5275b6ef92" -DeviceName "TSQA031" -BootImagePath "boot\x86\images\Contosox86boot.wim" -JoinDomain $False -WdsClientUnattend "WindowsDSClientUnattend\Unattend.xml"

This command creates a pre-staged client named TSQA031 that has the specified ID. The command specifies a boot image and an answer file. The JoinDomain parameter has a value of $False, so this computer does not join a domain.

Example 2: Create a pre-staged client that joins a domain

PS C:\>New-WdsClient -DeviceID "5a7a1def-2e1f-4a7b-a792-ae5275b6ef92" -DeviceName "TSQA048" -JoinRights Full -User "TSQADOMAIN\PattiFuller" -Domain "TSQADomain.Contoso.com" -Group "NewComputers" -JoinDomain $True -OU "OU=Unit21,CN=TSQAMain,DC=Contoso,DC=com" -PxePromptPolicy OptIn -ReferralServer "WindowsDS01"

This command creates a pre-staged client named TSQA048 that has the specified ID. The command specifies a referral server and an opt-in PXE prompt policy. The computer belongs to the NewComputers group.

The JoinDomain parameter has a value of $True, so this computer joins the domain specified by the Domain parameter. The command assigns the user TSQADOMAIN\PattiFuller full join rights for the domain and specifies an OU for the computer.

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete. The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet. For more information about Windows PowerShell® background jobs, see about_Jobs.

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

-BootImagePath

Specifies a path of the boot image. This is the path of the boot image file for the computer.

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

-CimSession

Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

Type:CimSession[]
Aliases:Session
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-DeviceID

Specifies the ID of the computer. This identifier is the GUID of a network adapter, a MAC address, or a DHCP unique identifier associated with the computer.

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

-DeviceName

Specifies the name of the computer associated with the pre-staged client. This is a sAMAccountName value.

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

-Domain

Specifies the domain in which to create the computer account name.

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

-Group

Specifies the group name of the client associated with the pre-staged client.

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

-JoinDomain

Indicates whether to join the computer to a domain as the account specified by the User parameter.

Type:Boolean
Position:Named
Default value:TRUE
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-JoinRights

Specifies the rights to assign to the account. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • Full. Assigns full access rights, which includes the right to join the computer to the domain at any time.
  • JoinOnly. Requires the administrator to reset the computer account before the user can join the computer to the domain.
Type:JoinRights
Accepted values:JoinOnly, Full
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-OU

Specifies the distinguished name of an OU. The cmdlet creates the computer account object in this location. If you do not specify this parameter, Windows Deployment Services creates the account in the default computer container in the domain of the server that runs Windows Deployment Services.

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

-PxePromptPolicy

Specifies the prompt policy for this computer to boot in PXE. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • Adopt
  • NoPrompt
  • OptIn
  • OptOut

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

-ThrottleLimit

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.

Type:Int32

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

-User

Specifies a user, in the format DOMAIN\User or User@Domain. If you specify a value of $True for the JoinDomain parameter, the cmdlet assigns the user the right to join the computer to the domain specified by the Domain parameter. To join the client computer to the specified domain without granting any user rights, specify a value of $True for the JoinDomain parameter, but do not specify a user.

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

-WdsClientUnattend

Specifies an answer file as a relative path from the RemoteInstall share. This file contains information for the Windows Deployment Services client user interface screens, such as entering credentials, selecting an install image, and configuring the disk.
