Get-DscLocalConfigurationManager

Get-DscLocalConfigurationManager
    [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
    [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]
    [-AsJob]
    [<CommonParameters>]

The Get-DscLocalConfigurationManager cmdlet gets LCM settings, or meta-configuration, and the states of LCM for the node. Specify computers by using Common Information Model (CIM) sessions. If you do not specify a target computer, the cmdlet gets the configuration settings from the local computer.

This example gets LCM settings for a computer specified by a CIM session. The example creates a CIM session for a computer named Server01 for use with the cmdlet. Alternatively, create an array of CIM sessions to apply the cmdlet to multiple specified computers.

The first command creates a CIM session by using the New-CimSession cmdlet, and then stores the CimSession object in the $Session variable. The command prompts you for a password. For more information, type Get-Help New-CimSession.

The second command gets Local Configuration Manager settings for the computers identified by the CimSession objects stored in the $Session variable. In this case, the computer named Server01.

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -InformationAction, -InformationVariable, -OutBuffer, -OutVariable, -PipelineVariable, -ProgressAction, -Verbose, -WarningAction, and -WarningVariable. For more information, see about_CommonParameters.
