#PSTip Identifying DSC commands

Note: This tip requires PowerShell 4.0 or above.

Starting in Windows PowerShell 4.0 with the new Desired State Configuration (DSC) feature, we now have one more command type added to the list of command types: Configuration.

PS> Get-Command -CommandType Configuration

To tell if a command in hand is a Configuration command, check the command ScriptBlock.IsConfiguration property

PS> $command.ScriptBlock.IsConfiguration
