   -GuestOSProfile <GuestOSProfile>
   [-RunAsynchronously]
   [-PROTipID <Guid>]

   [<CommonParameters>]
Add-SCServerFeature
   [-VMMServer <ServerConnection>]

Description

The Add-SCServerFeature cmdlet adds an operating system role or feature to a guest operating system profile. The role or feature is automatically installed during machine deployment and servicing operations.

Examples

Example 1: Add a server feature to a guest operating system profile

PS C:\> $OSProfile = Get-SCGuestOSProfile -Name "NewOSProfile01"
PS C:\> $Feature = Get-SCServerFeature -Name "Failover-Clustering"
PS C:\> Add-SCServerFeature -GuestOSProfile $OSProfile -ServerFeature $Feature

The first command gets the guest operating system profile object named NewOSProfile01 and stores the object in the $OSProfile variable.

The second command gets the server feature object named Failover-Clustering and stores the object in the $Feature variable.

The last command adds the server feature stored in $Feature (Failover-Clustering) to the guest operating system profile stored in $OSProfile (NewOSProfile01).
