[<CommonParameters>]Description
The Remove-SCPXEServer cmdlet removes a PXEServer object from the Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) database, and uninstalls the VMM agent from the Windows Deployment Services computer. This cmdlet does not remove the Windows Deployment Services role from the computer.
Examples
Example 1: Remove a VMM PXE server
PS C:\> $Credential = Get-SCRunAsAccount "RunAsAcct01"
PS C:\> $PXEServer = Get-SCPXEServer -ComputerName "WDSServer01.Contoso.com"
PS C:\> Remove-SCPXEServer -PXEServer $PXEServer -Credential $Credential -ConfirmThe first command uses the Get-Credential cmdlet to prompt you to supply a user name and password and stores the provided credentials in the $Credential variable. The account must have local Administrator permissions on the PXE server.
The second command gbets the PXE server object named WDSServer01 and stores the object in the $PXEServer variable.
The third command removes the PXE server object stored in $PXEServer. As this command is processed, $Credential provides credentials to Remove-SCPXEServer, and the Confirm parameter prompts you to confirm that you want to remove this PXE server from VMM.
