Set-SCBaseline

Modifies a baseline by adding or removing updates or assignment scopes.

Description

The Set-SCBaseline cmdlet modifies a baseline by adding or removing updates or assignment scopes. A baseline is a list of updates which, together with scope assignments, can grade the compliance of required updates for System Center Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) fabric servers.

Parameters

Baseline

Required? true
Accept Pipeline Input? true (ByValue)
Position? 0 
Specifies a VMM baseline object.

AddAssignmentScope

Required? false
Accept Pipeline Input? false
Position? named 
Adds one or more virtual machine hosts or clusters to a baseline assignment scope.

AddUpdates

Required? false
Accept Pipeline Input? false
Position? named 
Adds one or more software updates to a baseline.

Description

Required? false
Accept Pipeline Input? false
Position? named 
States a description for the specified object.

JobGroup

Required? false
Accept Pipeline Input? false
Position? named 
Specifies an identifier for a series of commands that will run as a set just before the final command that includes the same job group identifier runs.

JobVariable

Required? false
Accept Pipeline Input? false
Position? named 
Specifies that job progress is tracked and stored in the variable named by this parameter.

Name

Required? false
Accept Pipeline Input? false
Position? named 
Specifies the name of a VMM object.

PROTipID

Required? false
Accept Pipeline Input? false
Position? named 
Specifies the ID of the PRO tip that triggered this action. This allows for auditing of PRO tips.

RemoveAssignmentScope

Required? false
Accept Pipeline Input? false
Position? named 
Removes one or more VMMManagedComputer, VMHostCluster, or VMHostGroup objects from a baseline assignment scope.

RemoveUpdates

Required? false
Accept Pipeline Input? false
Position? named 
Removes one or more software updates from a baseline.

RunAsynchronously

Required? false
Accept Pipeline Input? false
Position? named 
Indicates that the job runs asynchronously so that control returns to the command shell immediately.

StartNow

Required? false
Accept Pipeline Input? false
Position? named 
Identifies the last command of a jobgroup and starts running the commands within the jobgroup. This parameter must be used with the JobGroup parameter.

VMMServer

Required? false
Accept Pipeline Input? true (ByValue)
Position? named 
Specifies a VMM server object.

Examples

1: Modify an exiting baseline by adding updates and an assignment scope. 
PS C:\> $Cluster = Get-SCVMHostCluster -Name “Cluster01”
PS C:\> $Baseline = Get-SCBaseline –Name “Security Baseline”
PS C:\> $Update = Get-SCUpdate –SecurityBulletinId “MS05-055”
PS C:\> Set-SCBaseline -Baseline $Baseline –AddUpdates $Update –AddAssignmentScope $Cluster

The first command gets the cluster object named Cluster01 and stores the object in the $Cluster variable.

The second command gets the baseline object named Security Baseline and stores the object in the $Baseline variable.

The third command gets the security bulletin update object named MS05-051 and stores the object in the $Update variable.

The last command adds the update stored in $Update (MS05-051) to the baseline stored in $Baseline (Security Baseline) and sets the assignment scope to the object stored in $Cluster (Cluster01).
2: Remove an update and an assignment scope from an existing baseline. 
PS C:\> $Cluster = Get-SCVMHostCluster –Name “Cluster01”
PS C:\> $Baseline = Get-SCBaseline -Name “Security Baseline”
PS C:\> $Update = Get-SCUpdate -SecurityBulletinId “MS05-055”
PS C:\> Set-SCBaseline -Baseline $Baseline –RemoveUpdates $Update -RemoveAssignmentScope $Cluster

The first command gets the cluster object named Cluster01 and stores the object in the $Cluster variable.

The second command gets the baseline object named Security Baseline and stores the object in the $Baseline variable.

The third command gets the security bulletin update object named MS05-051 and stores the object in the $Update variable.

The last command removes the update stored in $Update (MS05-051) from the baseline stored in $Baseline (Security Baseline) and removes the assignment scope stored in $Cluster (Cluster01).
