The ImportMachineEntry Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) class method, in Configuration Manager, imports machine information.
The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and defines the method.
SInt32 ImportMachineEntry( String NetbiosName, String SMBIOSGUID, String MACAddress, Boolean OverwriteExistingRecord, Boolean MachineExists, UInt32 ResourceID, String SMSUniqueIdentifier ); |
Parameters
- NetbiosName
- Data type: StringQualifiers: [in]The NetBIOS name for the computer.
- SMBIOSGUID
- Data type: StringQualifiers: [in]The GUID for the system management BIOS (SMBIOS).
- MACAddress
- Data type: StringQualifiers: [in]The media access
controller (MAC) address. The MAC address must be for a network
adapter that has a driver in Windows PE. The MAC address must be in
colon format. For example,
00:00:00:00:00:00
. Other formats prevent the client from receiving policy.
- OverwriteExistingRecord
- Data type: BooleanQualifiers: [in]true to overwrite the existing record.
- MachineExists
- Data type: BooleanQualifiers: [out]true if the computer exists.
- ResourceID
- Data type: UInt32Qualifiers: [out]Resource ID for the computer.
- SMSUniqueIdentifier
- Data type: StringQualifiers: [out]Unique ID of Configuration Manager.
