[-RetryCount <Int32>]
[-Target <TargetType>]
[-UseCache <Boolean>]
[-Condition <IResultObject[]>]

Description
This cmdlet creates a new Install Software Updates step object. Then use the Add-CMTaskSequenceStep cmdlet to add the step to a task sequence. For more information on this step, see About task sequence steps: Install Software Updates.
Note
Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.
Examples
Example 1
This example creates an object for the Install Software Updates step, to install all available updates from cached scan results. It will retry up to five times.
It then gets a task sequence object, and adds this new step to the task sequence at index 11.
$step = New-CMTSStepInstallUpdate -Name "Install Software Updates" -Target All -UseCache $true -RetryCount 5
$tsNameOsd = "Default OS deployment"
$tsOsd = Get-CMTaskSequence -Name $tsNameOsd -Fast
$tsOsd | Add-CMTaskSequenceStep -Step $step -InsertStepStartIndex 11
Parameters
-Condition
Specify a condition object to use with this step. To get this object, use one of the task sequence condition cmdlets. For example, Get-CMTSStepConditionVariable.
