Description
The Remove-CMHardwareRequirement cmdlet removes hardware requirement objects from Configuration Manager.
Configuration Manager manages Asset Intelligence information, including hardware requirements, for different software products. You can add, modify, or delete your own hardware requirements, but you cannot change built-in hardware requirement objects.
You can use this cmdlet to remove hardware requirement objects. You can specify a product by name or obtain a requirement by using the Get-CMHardwareRequirement cmdlet.
Note
Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.
Examples
Example 1: Remove a hardware requirement
PS XYZ:\> Remove-CMHardwareRequirement -Product "Accounts Program"
Remove
Are you sure you wish to remove HardwareRequirement: Product="Accounts Program"?
[Y] Yes [N] No [S] Suspend [?] Help (default is "Y"):
This command removes the hardware requirement object for a product named Accounts Program.
Parameters
