Syntax

Lock-ProvVM
    -ProvisioningSchemeName <String>
    [-VMID] <String[]>
    [-Tag <String>]
    [-LoggingId <Guid>]
    [<CitrixCommonParameters>]
    [<CommonParameters>]
<!--NeedCopy-->
Lock-ProvVM
    -ProvisioningSchemeUid <Guid>

Description

Provides the ability to ‘lock’ virtual machine(s) with a tag string. This indicates that the VM is being used, and prevents other commands from removing the VM without unlocking it.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

Locks the VM with the Id ‘bc79802c-ba6e-8de8-99e9-4c35d7ad24b4’ in the provisioning scheme ‘MyScheme’ with the tag ‘LockedString’.

Lock-ProvVM -provisioningSchemeName MyScheme -VMId  bc79802c-ba6e-8de8-99e9-4c35d7ad24b4 -Tag LockedString
<!--NeedCopy-->

EXAMPLE 2

Locks all the VMs in the provisioning scheme ‘MyScheme’ with the tag ‘LockedString’.

Get-ProvVM -provisioningSchemeName MyScheme | Lock-ProvVM -Tag LockedString
<!--NeedCopy-->
