Initiate a machine policy or user policy on the client machine/members of a collection

Very useful command which can trigger the client machine policy/user policy action. Can be triggered for a device or a collection.

Whenever I deploy an application to a set of my test machines, I would trigger this action from the SCCM powershell console which would make the deployment available quickly on the machine.

Example: 

Invoke-CMClientNotification

 

Invoke-CMClientNotification -DeviceCollectionName "CollectionName" -NotificationType RequestMachinePolicyNow -Verbose
