Test-SCSMManagementPack

Test-SCSMManagementPack

Tests the validity of a management pack.

Syntax

Parameter Set: Default
Test-SCSMManagementPack [-FullName] <String> [-ComputerName <String[]> ] [-Credential <PSCredential> ] [-SCSession <Connection[]> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Test-SCSMManagementPack cmdlet tests the validity of a management pack. This cmdlet replaces the MPVerify.exe utility, which verifies a management pack by using the software development kit (SDK) method ManagementPack.Verify(). This cmdlet requires that the user specify the path to the management pack file and the name of the computer to use for resolving dependencies. For management pack bundle files (.mpb), all the management packs in the bundle will be tested for validity.

All issues that are found during the test are written as nonterminating errors, one error per issue. The output of the cmdlet is an object consisting of the management pack name, the path of the management pack, and a property named Verified, which equals True if no errors are found and False if errors were found.

Parameters

-ComputerName<String[]>

Specifies a computer with which to establish a connection. The computer must be running the System Center Data Access service. The default value is the computer for the current management group connection.

Valid formats include a NetBIOS name, an IP address, or a fully qualified domain name (FQDN). To specify the local computer, type the computer name, "localhost", or a dot (.).
