.NAME
PendingReboot .DESCRIPTION PendingReboot examines three specific registry locations where a Windows Server might indicate that a reboot is pending and allows DSC to predictably handle the condition. DSC determines how to handle pending reboot conditions using the Local Configuration Manager (LCM) setting RebootNodeIfNeeded. When DSC resources require reboot, within a Set statement in a DSC Resource the global variable DSCMachineStatus is set to value '1'. When this condition occurs and RebootNodeIfNeeded is set to 'True', DSC reboots the machine after a successful Set. Otherwise, the reboot is postponed. Note: The expectation is that this resource will be used in conjunction with knowledge of DSC Local Configuration Manager, which has the ability to manage whether reboots happen automatically using the RebootIfNeeded parameter. For more information on configuring the LCM, please reference https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn249922.aspx. .PARAMETER Name Key - String Specifies the name of this pending reboot check. .PARAMETER SkipComponentBasedServicing Write - Boolean Specifies whether to skip reboots triggered by the Component-Based Servicing component. .PARAMETER ComponentBasedServicing Read - Boolean A value indicating whether the Component-Based Servicing component requested a reboot. .PARAMETER SkipWindowsUpdate Write - Boolean Specifies whether to skip reboots triggered by Windows Update. .PARAMETER WindowsUpdate Read - Boolean A value indicating whether Windows Update requested a reboot. .PARAMETER SkipPendingFileRename Write - Boolean Specifies whether to skip pending file rename reboots. .PARAMETER PendingFileRename Read - Boolean A value indicating whether a pending file rename triggered a reboot. .PARAMETER SkipPendingComputerRename Write - Boolean Specifies whether to skip reboots triggered by a pending computer rename. .PARAMETER PendingComputerRename Read - Boolean A value indicating whether a pending computer rename triggered a reboot. .PARAMETER SkipCcmClientSDK Write - Boolean Specifies whether to skip reboots triggered by the ConfigMgr client. Defaults to True. .PARAMETER CcmClientSDK Read - Boolean A value indicating whether the ConfigMgr client triggered a reboot. .PARAMETER RebootRequired Read - Boolean A value indicating whether the node requires a reboot. .EXAMPLE 1 This example joins a computer to a domain and allows the LCM node to reboot after the join. The LCM must have been configured with the RebootNodeIfNeeded property set to $true. Configuration PendingReboot_RebootAfterDomainJoin_Config { param ( [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [ValidateNotNullorEmpty()] [System.Management.Automation.PSCredential] $Credential ) Import-DscResource -ModuleName ComputerManagementDsc Node localhost { Computer JoinDomain { Name = 'Server01' DomainName = 'Contoso' Credential = $Credential # Credential to join to domain } PendingReboot RebootAfterDomainJoin { Name = 'DomainJoin' } } } .EXAMPLE 2 This example sets the timezone of the node to Tonga Standard Time and then allows the LCM node to reboot the node only if System Center Configuration Manager requires a reboot. No other reboot trigger will cause the LCM to reboot the node. Configuration PendingReboot_ConfigMgrReboot_Config { Import-DscResource -ModuleName ComputerManagementDsc Node localhost { TimeZone TimeZoneExample { IsSingleInstance = 'Yes' TimeZone = 'Tonga Standard Time' } PendingReboot ConfigMgrReboot { Name = 'ConfigMgr' SkipComponentBasedServicing = $true SkipWindowsUpdate = $true SkipPendingFileRename = $true SkipPendingComputerRename = $true SkipCcmClientSDK = $false } } } |
