Use this cmdlet to create a phased deployment for a task sequence by generating two phases with same settings. This cmdlet's behavior is the same as the Create Phased Deployment wizard on a task sequence, when you select the option to Automatically create a default two phase deployment.
Note
Before you create a phased deployment, make sure to distribute the task sequence content to a distribution point.
Examples
Example 1: Create a deployment by task sequence name
This example creates a new task sequence phased deployment named myDPName for the task sequence myTaskSequenceName.
This cmdlet automatically creates two phases for the specified two collections. You can also add more phases with this parameter. Specify an array of phases. Use New-CMTaskSequencePhase to create the phases.
