When trying to execute New-CMVhd via powershell in SCCM 2012 R2 CU3 I get a "Not Found" error.

This happens in our production and pre-production environments.

Using the Console wizard works fine.

Command is:

New-CMVhd -Path "\\machine\D$\Windows2012R2Server_SCCM.vhd" -Name "Windows2012R2Server_SCCM" -Version "1.0" -VHDSize 100 -TaskSequencePackageId "XXX00123" -DistributionPointServerNames "server.contso.com" -Description "Built with Deploy Server To VHD Task Sequence." -Verbose

Output:

VERBOSE: Performing the operation "New" on target "Vhd: New".

Can anyone else reproduce this? I have a feeling it will be a premier support call to Microsoft :-(

Thanks

We'll look into getting this fixed in the next release of the cmdlets.

Hi,

Pls try to run the following command to import CM powershell module and change the path to be the CM server before your new-cmvhd command:

import-module 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Configuration Manager\AdminConsole\bin\ConfigurationManager.psd1'
Set-Location CMserver:\

Or you can use the "Connect via Windows PowerShell" feature in CM remote console to run your command.

Meanwhile, try to change the command to be Version "X64".

Hi,

Just check if any updates for this issue.

I did install SCCM 2012 R2 CU4 and still have this issue. Any updates from Microsoft?
