So for a couple of years now, I've had a script that we've used about 500 times that adds device variables to CM devices using New-CMDeviceVariable for use during provisioning and deployment. New-CMDeviceVariable -DeviceName device -IsMask $False -VariableName Var1 -VariableValue "Value1" Been working fine, like I said for years. But now today, I get this when running the above: New-CMDeviceVariable : ConfigMgr Error Object: instance of SMS_ExtendedStatus { CauseInfo = "-2016279279"; Description = "CSspMachineExtProperties: The machine is not an SMS client."; ErrorCode = 1078462213; File = "e:\\cm1606_rtm\\sms\\siteserver\\sdk_provider\\smsprov\\sspmachineextprops.cpp"; Line = 942; Operation = "PutInstance"; ParameterInfo = ""; ProviderName = "ExtnProv"; StatusCode = 2147749889; }; At line:2 char:1 + New-CMDeviceVariable -DeviceName device -IsMask $False -Variable ... + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (Microsoft.Confi...VariableCommand:NewDeviceVariableCommand) [New-CMDeviceVariable], WqlQueryException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : UnhandledException,Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.Cmdlets.Collections.Commands.NewDeviceVariableCommand I have the SCCM psd1 file load at startup in my profiles and this morning I noticed that it spent time contacting a MS download site to update? I didn't think much of it then so I don't have the specific text. The object doesn't actually have a client attached to it yet because I provision the object prior to installing the client. Does New-CMDeviceVariable really care if the object is an SMS client now like the error seems to suggest? Is anything new with the powerhshell cmdlets today?
