The SMS_TaskSequence_Step Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) class is an SMS Provider server class, in Configuration Manager. This class serves as an abstract base class representing a single step in a task sequence.

The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all inherited properties.

Class SMS_TaskSequence_Step
{
      SMS_TaskSequence_Condition Condition;
      Boolean ContinueOnError;
      String Description;
      Boolean Enabled;
      String Name;
};

Methods

The SMS_TaskSequence_Step class does not define any methods.

Properties

Condition
Data type: SMS_TaskSequence_Condition

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None

Optional. An SMS_TaskSequence_Condition Server WMI Class object representing a condition that can be used to determine if the step should be processed.

ContinueOnError
Data type: Boolean

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None

true to continue the task sequence even if the step fails.

Description
Data type: String

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: [AllowedLen("0-255")]

Optional. The description of the step. The description length can be between 0 and 255 characters.

Enabled

Each step in the task sequence is one of the following:

An individual action that is run on a computer, represented by a SMS_TaskSequence_Action Server WMI Class or derived class. For example, the SMS_TaskSequence_InstallSoftwareAction Server WMI Class class represents an action that specifies a package and a program to install as part of a task sequence.
A set of actions in a group, represented by SMS_TaskSequence_Group Server WMI Class. Groups are useful ways to organize actions. For example, to conditionally process a set of actions, you could organize the actions into a group and add a condition to the group.

Each step can be associated with a condition, represented by SMS_TaskSequence_Condition Server WMI Class that determines whether the step is processed.
