Description

The Add-VMGroupMember cmdlet adds members to a virtual machine group. Groups can contain either virtual machines or groups of virtual machines.

Examples

Example 1: Add virtual machines to a group

PS C:\> $VM01 = Get-VM -Name "ContosoVirtualMachine01"
PS C:\> $VM02 = Get-VM -Name "ContosoVirtualMachine02"
PS C:\> Add-VMGroupMember -Name "VirtualMachineGroup" -VM $VM01, $VM02

The first two commands use the Get-VM cmdlet to get virtual machines named ContosoVirtualMachine01 and ContosoVirtualMachine02. The commands store these virtual machine objects in the $VM01 and $VM02 variables.

The final command adds the virtual machines in $VM01 and $VM02 to the virtual machine group named VirtualMachineGroup.

Example 2: Add groups to a group

PS C:\> $VMGroup01 = Get-VMGroup -Name "ContosoGroup01"
PS C:\> $VMGroup02 = Get-VMGroup -Name "ContosoGroup02"
PS C:\> Add-VMGroupMember -Name "ContosoMainGroup" -VMGroupMember $VMGroup01, $VMGroup02

The first two commands use the Get-VMGroup cmdlet to get virtual machine groups named ContosoGroup01 and ContosoGroup02. The commands store these group objects in the $VMGroup01 and $VMGroup02 variables.

The final commad adds the groups in $VMGroup01 and $VMGroup02 to the group named ContosoMainGroup.

Parameters

-CimSession

Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

Specifies an array of virtual machines that this cmdlet adds to a virtual machine group. To obtain a VirtualMachine object, use the Get-VM cmdlet.

Type:VirtualMachine[]
Position:1
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-VMGroup

Specifies the virtual machine group to which this cmdlet adds virtual machines or groups of virtual machines. To obtain a VMGroup object, use the Get-VMGroup cmdlet.
