Description

Use this cmdlet to add an exclude membership rule to a user collection. An exclude membership rule excludes the members of another collection from the user collections where the rule is applied.

You can't add membership rules to default collections. Any collection that you target should have an ID that starts with the site code, not SMS. You can exclude a default collection, so the ID of an excluded collection can start with SMS.

Configuration Manager dynamically updates the membership of the user collection on a schedule if the membership of the excluded collection changes.

When you add an exclude membership rule to a collection, a resource may no longer be a member of the user collection. This action can cause any software or configuration deployment to not apply to a user.

For more information, see How to create collections in Configuration Manager.

Note

Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.

Examples

Example 1: Add an exclude collection rule to a user collection

This command excludes the members of the Remote Users collection, which has the ID XYZ00017, from the user collection with ID XYZ00012.

Add-CMUserCollectionExcludeMembershipRule -CollectionId "XYZ00012" -ExcludeCollectionId "XYZ00017"
