Description

The Remove-SCServicingWindowSubscription cmdlet removes a servicing window from a virtual machine, host, or service.

Examples

Example 1: Remove a servicing window subscription from all virtual machines owned by a specified user

PS C:\> $SvcWindow = Get-SCServicingWindow -Name "Backup Staging A"
PS C:\> Get-SCVirtualMachine | where {$_.Owner -eq "Contoso\ReneeLo"} | Remove-SCServicingWindowSubscription -ServicingWindow $SvcWindow

The first command gets the servicing window object named Backup Staging A and stores the object in the $SvcWindow variable.

The second command gets all virtual machine objects, selects only the virtual machines that are owned by Contoso\ReneeLo and then uses the pipeline operator to pass the virtual machines to the Remove-SCServicingWindowSubscription cmdlet, which removes all subscriptions for the servicing window stored in $SvcWindow from each virtual machine that is passed to it.
