Remove-LMDeviceProperty

[aggie87]

When I use this function it always prompts me to Confirm removal of a property, even when I don't select the -Confirm option. The following example will demonstrate this:

New-LMDeviceProperty -Id 11 -PropertyName "test123" -PropertyValue "test123value"

Get-LMDeviceProperty -Id 11 -PropertyName "test123"

type   name    value        inheritList
----   ----    -----        -----------
custom test123 test123value {}         

Remove-LMDeviceProperty -Id 11 -PropertyName "test123"

Results in the following Confirm dialogue box popping up. I am not sure how to force it to remove the property in bulk when I am trying to remove hundreds of the same property across the database

Since that cmdlet is a destructive action it will always prompt for confirmation. For automated scenarios you can override that behavior by setting the parameter
-Confirm:$false

Thanks. I wasn't sure what that syntax was for -Confirm I tried the following with no joy....so close! :-)

Remove-LMDeviceProperty -Id 11 -PropertyName "test123" -Confirm $false

It's always a missing colon :). This article is worth a quick read to get up to speed on the various settings you might encounter in powershell modules: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/whatif-confirm-and-validateonly-switches-exchange-2013-help

The LM module supports -Confirm and -WhatIf parameters currently.
