SCCM – Issue Triggers using WMI

email me

Using WMI, this is how you issue  commands to trigger specific SCCM events. Pretty useful if you need to force an inventory refresh…in MDT or remotely. Also see: PowerShell method

 

Command

WMIC /namespace:\\root\ccm path sms_client CALL TriggerSchedule “{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001}” /NOINTERACTIVE


PowerShell Usage

Invoke-WMIMethod -ComputerName $Server -Namespace root\ccm -Class SMS_CLIENT -Name TriggerSchedule “{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001}”

 

Examples


Trigger Hardware Inventory

WMIC /namespace:\\root\ccm path sms_client CALL TriggerSchedule “{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001}” /NOINTERACTIVE


Trigger Software Inventory

WMIC /namespace:\\root\ccm path sms_client CALL TriggerSchedule “{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000002}” /NOINTERACTIVE

Notes

“SendSchedule.exe /L ServerNameHere” to get a list of all triggerable actions for a specific server.

 

Remotely issue the event

$ComputerName = “ComputerNameHere”
$SCCMClient = [wmiclass] “\\$ComputerName\root\ccm:SMS_Client”;
$SCCMClient | Get-Member;

get-wmiobject CCM_Scheduler_ScheduledMessage -namespace root\ccm\policy\machine\actualconfig | select-object ScheduledMessageID, TargetEndPoint | where-object {$_.TargetEndPoint -ne “direct:execmgr”}

try{

$SCCMClient.TriggerSchedule(“{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001}”);

}
catch{
$_.Exception.Message;
