New-SCSMManagementGroupConnection [[-ComputerName] <String[]> ] [[-Credential] <PSCredential> ] [-PassThru] [ <CommonParameters>]
Detailed Description
The New-SCSMManagementGroupConnection cmdlet creates a connection for a management group. The last connection that is created with the New-SCManagementGroupConnection cmdlet becomes the active connection that is used by the Get cmdlets when no ComputerName or SCSession parameter is specified. You can use the Set-SCManagementGroupConnection cmdlet to set a different active connection. If a connection already exists, this cmdlet does not create a new connection.
