Import Computer to Configuration Manager 2007 / 2012

This is a really quick one…

With this script you are able to import a computer into your Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager environment. No matter if it’s 2007 or 2012.

Function Import-ConfigMgr
{
  ### Define variables to import the client to ConfigMgr
  $strTargetComputer = $computername
  $strTargetMac = $computerMAC
  ### Which collection should the client be imported to?
  $strTargetCollection = 'Install ' + $computerOS # in my environment a Client automatically gets a machine variable $computerOS
  ### Load Variables
  $strSite = "Site_LAB"
  # Create computer in ConfigMgr
  $strColon = ":"
  $Class = "SMS_Site"
  $Method = "ImportMachineEntry"
  $MC = [WmiClass]"\.ROOTSMS$strSite$strColon$Class"
  $InParams = $mc.psbase.GetMethodParameters($Method)
  $InParams.MACAddress = $strTargetMac
  $InParams.NetbiosName = $strTargetComputer
  $InParams.OverwriteExistingRecord = $true
  $inparams.PSBase.properties | select name,Value | Format-Table
  $objCMComputer = $mc.PSBase.InvokeMethod($Method, $inParams, $Null)
  # Create Collection Rule Direct
  $Class = "SMS_CollectionRuleDirect"
  $objColRuledirect = [WmiClass]"\$ComputerROOTSMS$strSite$strColon$Class"
  $objColRuleDirect.psbase.properties["ResourceClassName"].value = "SMS_R_System"
  $objColRuleDirect.psbase.properties["ResourceID"].value = $objCMComputer.resourceID
  # Target Collection connection
  $Collection = gwmi -computer $computer -namespace "rootsms$strSite" -class "SMS_Collection"
  $PoshCollec = $collection | where{$_.Name -eq "$strTargetCollection"}
  # Add Computer to Target Collection
  $Class = "SMS_Collection"
  $Method = "AddMembershipRule"
  $CollectionID = $PoshCollec.CollectionID
  $filter="CollectionID = '$CollectionID'"
  $MC = Get-WmiObject $class -computer $Computer -Namespace "ROOTSMS$strSite" -filter $filter
  $InParams = $mc.psbase.GetMethodParameters($Method)
  $InParams.collectionRule = $objColRuledirect
  $inparams.PSBase.properties | select name,Value | Format-Table
  $R = $mc.PSBase.InvokeMethod($Method, $inParams, $Null)
}

The script needs to run on a ConfigMgr management point.
