In Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007, you delete a step (an action or a group) from an operating system deployment task sequence group by deleting the step from the group's list of task sequence steps.

To remove a step from a group

Set up a connection to the SMS Provider. For more information, see About the SMS Provider in Configuration Manager.
Get the SMS_TaskSequenceGroup object that you want to add the step to. For more information, see How to Create an Operating System Deployment Task Sequence Group.
Remove the action from the SMS_TaskSequenceGroup.Steps array property.

Example

The following example method removes an action from a task sequence group.

For information about calling the sample code, see Calling Configuration Manager Code Snippets.

Sub RemoveActionFromGroup(taskSequenceGroup, actionName)

    Dim i
  
    If taskSequenceGroup.SystemProperties_("__CLASS")<>"SMS_TaskSequence_Group" Then
        wscript.echo "Not a group"
        return
    End If
  
        Dim newArray
        Dim actionStep
        
        newArray = Array(taskSequenceGroup.Steps)
        ReDim newArray(UBound(taskSequenceGroup.Steps))
                         
        i=0
        for each  actionStep in taskSequenceGroup.Steps
            If actionStep.Name = actionName and _
              actionStep.SystemProperties_("__SUPERCLASS") = "SMS_TaskSequence_Action" Then
                 ReDim preserve newArray(UBound(newArray)-1) ' shrink the Array
            else
               wscript.echo actionStep.Name
               Set newArray(i)=actionStep ' copy it
               i=i+1
            End If   

         Next
             
         taskSequenceGroup.Steps=newArray
         
 End Sub

public void RemoveActionFromGroup(
    IResultObject taskSequenceGroup, 
    string actionName)
{
    try
    {
        if (taskSequenceGroup["__CLASS"].StringValue != "SMS_TaskSequence_Group")
        {
            throw new System.InvalidOperationException("Not a group");
        }

        List<IResultObject> groupSteps = taskSequenceGroup.GetArrayItems("Steps");
        IResultObject actionFound = null;
        foreach (IResultObject actionStep in groupSteps)
        {
            if (actionStep["Name"].StringValue == actionName && actionStep["__SUPERCLASS"].StringValue == "SMS_TaskSequence_Action")
            {
                actionFound = actionStep;
                break;
            }
        }

        groupSteps.Remove(actionFound);
        taskSequenceGroup.SetArrayItems("Steps", groupSteps);
    }
    catch (SmsException e)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Failed to remove action: " + e.Message);
        throw;
    }
}

The example method has the following parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description
taskSequenceGroup	Managed: IResultObject VBScript: SWbemObject	The task sequence group containing the action to be deleted.
actionName	Managed: String VBScript: String	The name of the action to be deleted. This can be obtained from the SMS_TaskSequenceAction.Name property.
