Install Configuration Manager PowerShell Module

I wanted to install the Configuration Manager PowerShell module on my admin machine. After investigating a little, the module does not exist in the Microsoft PowerShell gallery.

The PowerShell script below will create the module directory under the WindowsPowerShell\module directory within %PROGRAMFILES%. It will then copy over all of the necessary files. After copying the files, it will import the module and then verify if the import was successful. Of course, when you want to actually use the module, you will need to connect to the ConfigMgr server using the following cmdlet and then change the site location to the $SiteCode drive:

• New-PSDrive -Name $SiteCode -PSProvider 'AdminUI.PS.Provider\CMSite' -Root $CMServer -Description $CMSiteDescription | Out-Null

This video shows the script running through the installation and verifying the install:

You will need to locate where the module exists and populate the location in the $ModuleSource parameter. On my ConfigMgr server, it was located at %PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft Configuration Manager\AdminConsole\bin.

Here is the script below. You can download it from my GitHub site located here.

      .SYNOPSIS  
           Configuration Manager PowerShell Module  
        
      .DESCRIPTION  
           This will copy the files needed to the computer this script is being executed on. It must be run using an AD account that has priviledges to both the directory on the ConfigMgr server and to the program files directory on the local computer.  
        
      .PARAMETER ModuleSource  
           UNC path containing the Configuration Manager PowerShell module  
        
      .PARAMETER ModuleDirectoryName  
           Name of the directory under the PowerShell Modules directory where the module is copied to
