I'm not normally the SCSM 2010 admin for our company, but I'm helping our main SCSM admin out with a project to migrate a bunch of active Change Requests over to new "Areas". I was able to look at the Change Requests in SCSM using the SMLets one-liner below:
Get-SCSMObject -Class (Get-SCSMClass -Name System.WorkItem.ChangeRequest$) and I've found the Area member, however it's just the GUID of the applicable area. Are the area's themselves an enumeration in SCSM 2010? I could go to the DBA and find the SQL table, but was just wondering if there was a good way to tease it out through the SMLets. Once we get our script together to change all the areas, I'll post it to the Powershell Scriptcenter and cross link it here...
