Ever want to know where in the CCMCache the content was located for that package that was downloaded? Ever think you found it, then figured out it wasn’t the most updated version of the content? I quick wrote this script to help me find where in the cache the content is located, and spits back the most updated version of it.
[CmdletBinding()]
Param(
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true,Position=1,HelpMessage="Package ID")]
[ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()]
[string]$PackageID
)
$CMObject = New-Object -ComObject 'UIResource.UIResourceMgr'
$CMCacheObjects = $CMObject.GetCacheInfo()
$OSUpgradeContent = $CMCacheObjects.GetCacheElements() | Where-Object {$_.ContentID -eq "$PackageID"}
$ContentVersion = $OSUpgradeContent.ContentVersion
$HighestContentID = $ContentVersion | measure -Maximum
$NewestContent = $OSUpgradeContent | Where-Object {$_.ContentVersion -eq $HighestContentID.Maximum}
$NewestContent.Location
Note, this was mostly for troubleshooting app installs, but I also found I could take advantage of this in a TS to locate content for a run commadline step.
Hi, Thanks for the above script its too useful to me, but i am not able to find by using content ID, pls help me on that. and also I like to remove the single app or package from ccmcahe folder after finding its location. How can i achieve that, pls help me…
Take a look at this: https://github.com/gwblok/garytown/blob/master/CM_PowerShell_Snips/CM_Functions.ps1
Look at the Get-CCMCach…. functions and the Remove-CCMCacheItem function.
