Hi, I want to accomplish this with DSC (I assume classic script will do the job here too). Uninstall SCOM agent Uninstall MECM client Remove server from domain I guess other two steps such as removing server from all Veeam backup jobs/removing VM from vSphere are doable with DSC as well …

Adding a link to the original post where this req came: Server decommissioning GUI App - PowerShell Help - PowerShell Forums

I am not aware of any DSC resources to handle those. But this can be done using a Script Resource or by creating custom DSC resources for each. DSC Script Resource - PowerShell | Microsoft Docs

For the first two steps why Package DSC resource can’t be used?

[image] bojan-zivkovic: Package yes. You can use if you know the product IDs.

Ok, will try to do on my own since it looks like you are a man of a few words. Thank you anyway.

:slight_smile: . Yes. That’s how we normally expect in forums. Its better to start with some code and share it here if you face any issues/doubts in code.
