If you ever need to see the DP location list coming from SCCM MP to a client. Here is a nifty script that will let you put in the information and see what it returns. Basically synthetic MP calls for DP Content List. [void] [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Diagnostics") [void] [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile("c:\Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.Messaging.dll") $ManagementPointSiteCode = "COP" $ManagementPoint = "Server.FQDN.local" $PackageID = "PackageID" $PackageVersion = "PackageVersion" $myDomain = "Domain.Whatever" $myForest = "Forest" $myCustomAdSite = "ADSite" # Set up the objects $httpSender = New-Object -TypeName Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.Messaging.Sender.Http.HttpSender $clr = New-Object -TypeName Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.Messaging.Messages.ConfigMgrContentLocationRequest $cmReply = New-Object -TypeName Microsoft.ConfigurationManage...

This one is pretty self explanatory. If you use BranchCache by default it puts the caches on C: drive and you might find that your C: is the smallest drive (depending on your server configuration). Anyways here is something that will help you move those caches around and set them to a different size. #Check if cache already moved $CacheStatus = Get-BCStatus If(($CacheStatus.HashCache.CacheFileDirectoryPath -like 'E:\')-or($CacheStatus.DataCache.CacheFileDirectoryPath -like 'E:\')) {     Set-BCDataCacheEntryMaxAge -TimeDays 10     Return "Already Moved" } elseif ((Get-Volume -DriveLetter E).FileSystem -ne "NTFS") {     # Set Cache Sizes     get-bchashcache | set-bccache -Percentage 2 -Force -Confirm:$false     get-bcdatacache | set-bccache -Percentage 1 -Force -Confirm:$false     Set-BCDataCacheEntryMaxAge -TimeDays 10     Return "Destination Not NTFS" } else {     #Create New Directories ...

Greetings folks Here is another bit you might find fun and exciting. You ever have the need to setup/modify apps to allow download from neighbors (that little drop down box, not the check box for default boundary). Then you are in luck. Take a look at the following $OutFileName = "C:\EnterLogNameHere.log" $AllApps = Get-CMApplication $Agent99 = $AllApps | Where-Object {$_.LocalizedDisplayName -like "*IfYouWantToLimitIt*"} foreach($appType1 in $Agent99) { $allTypes1 = Get-CMDeploymentType -ApplicationName $appType1.LocalizedDisplayName forEach($appType in $allTypes1) { If ($appType.Technology -contains "MSI") { #"MSI" $appType.LocalizedDisplayName +";"+ $appType.Technology +";"+ "Updated to Download" | Out-File $OutFileName -Append Set-CMMsiDeploymentType -ApplicationId $appType1.CI_ID -DeploymentTypeName $appType.LocalizedDisplayName -SlowNetworkDeploymentMode Download      } elseif ($appType....
