How to fetch Network Devices from Microsoft SCOM using powershell cmdlet?

Question

We are working on fetching devices from Microsoft System Center Operations Manager(SCOM) using powershell cmdlet. We have found the commands to fetch Windows Computers and Linux Computers but unable to find command to fetch Network Devices.

Can anyone let us know about this?

We are following this reference for powershell commands: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/operationsmanager/?view=systemcenter-ps-2022

Hi,

You can use the Get-SCOMClass and Get-SCOMClassInstance cmdlets in PowerShell to fetch network devices from SCOM.

Here is a basic example to get you started:

# Get the class for network devices
$networkDeviceClass = Get-SCOMClass -DisplayName "Network Device"

# Get instances of the network device class
$networkDevices = Get-SCOMClassInstance -Class $networkDeviceClass

# Display the network devices
$networkDevices | Select-Object DisplayName, IPAddress

This script retrieves the class for network devices and then fetches instances of that class. Finally, it displays the network devices along with their display names and IP addresses.
