SCOM 2016 with Powershell Desired State Configuration Part 3

Hi,

the intension of this three-part series is to get a picture of what you have to change on the xSCOM DSC Module to make it aware of SCOM 2016. I will show you what and where you have to change. Please use this as a modular example of how Powershell DSC modules can be manipulated to fit your needs. In the upcoming Part 4 I will show you how to use this xSCOM Module to deploy a complete SCOM environment.

Customize the PS DSC Modules Part 3:

Here will the development begin. You can find the modules at the following path: '$env:CommonProgramFiles\WindowsPowerShell\Modules'
We need to adjust the following DSCResources from the xScom Module:

MSFT_xSCOMConsoleSetup (described in Part 1 of this blog series) MSFT_xSCOMConsoleUpdate (described in Part 1 of this blog series) MSFT_xSCOMManagementServerSetup (described in Part 2 of this blog series) MSFT_xSCOMManagementServerUpdate (described in Part 2 of this blog series)
MSFT_xSCOMWebConsoleServerSetup (described in Part 3 of this blog series)
MSFT_xSCOMWebConsoleServerUpdate (described in Part 3 of this blog series)

Each Module folder contains two files. We need to edit the *.PSM (Powershell Module file). Please create a backup before. Each *.PSM file consists of three major Functions:

get-targetresource (needs to be manipulated)
set-targetresource (needs to be manipulated)
test-targetresource (no changes are required)

Please edit the MSFT_xSCOMWebConsoleServerSetup.psm1 from the MSFT_xSCOMWebConsoleServerSetup folder and go to the first section (Get-Targetresource)
Add the following condition part to the switch statement:

 "7.2.11719.0"
        {
            $IdentifyingNumber = "{676EB643-C22A-4EEC-A8CF-13A0719056A5}"
            $InstallRegVersion = "12"
        }

And next add the following switch condition to the switch statement in the Set-Targetresource function:

 "7.2.11719.0"
        {
            $IdentifyingNumber = "{676EB643-C22A-4EEC-A8CF-13A0719056A5}"
            $MSIdentifyingNumber = "{1199B530-E226-46DC-B7F4-7891D5AFCF22}"
        }

After that the MSFT_xSCOMWebConsoleServerSetup.psm1 file is aware of SCOM 2016 Web Console installations and DSC can push or pull a SCOM 2016 webconsole.
Now it should look like:

Export-ModuleMember -Function *-TargetResource

Next we add a few lines to the MSFT_xSCOMWebConsoleServerUpdate for deploying the newest SCOM UpdateRollup (UR3 in this case)
Please edit the MSFT_xSCOMWebConsoleServerUpdate.psm1 from the MSFT_xSCOMWebConsoleServerUpdate folder and go to the first section (Get-Targetresource)
Find the following Where clause:

 Where-Object {$_.Name -eq "System Center Operations Manager 2012 Web Console"}).Version

And change it to:

 Where-Object {$_.Name -eq "System Center Operations Manager 2016 Web Console"}).Version

And next add the following switch condition to the switch statement in the Get-Targetresource function:

 "7.2.11719.0"
        {
            $ProductCode = "{676EB643-C22A-4EEC-A8CF-13A0719056A5}"
            $PatchID = "{1D959DDF-C441-4C12-AAE6-5BEE5ABD6584}"
            $Update = "Update Rollup 3"
        } 

And now add the following lines to the switch statement in the Set-Targetresource function:

 "7.2.11719.0"
        {
            $UpdateFile = "KB4016126-AMD64-ENU-WebConsole.msp"
        } 

After that the MSFT_xSCOMWebConsoleServerUpdate.psm file is aware of SCOM 2016 UR3 Web Console updates and DSC can push or pull a SCOM 2016 Web Console UpdateRollup 3.
Now it should look like:
