Install SCVMM management packs from VMM Server

Time for some automation

Ever have to upgrade SCVMM packs every time a new Update Release (UR) comes out?

Copy the files off from the VMM server to your SCOM MS, install.

How long does that take?

Try this script out - assuming you have a login on the VMM Server

TechNet Gallery post here

# Set up some variables

$UR="UR5"

$VMMServer = "16VMM01"

# Set up your path, this example is monadmin\backup

$date = Get-Date -UFormat "%Y-%m-%d"

# Set up backup path

$backupPath = "C:\monadmin\backup"

$backupDrive = "C:"

# Create some functions

Watch them roll, let PowerShell do your work!
