Description
The Get-CMDeviceVariable cmdlet gets device variables of a Configuration Manager device.
Individual devices have device variables. Task sequence processing uses device variables.
Note
Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.
Examples
Example 1: Get a variable value by using its name
PS XYZ:\> Get-CMDeviceVariable -DeviceName "Computer073" -VariableName "HostDrive"
This command gets the value of the variable named HostDrive for the specified computer.
Parameters
-DeviceName
Specifies a device name. You can specify a NetBIOS name or a fully qualified ___domain name (FQDN).
