How can we put a computer in maintainence mode using SCOM command shell API

Can anybody please tell me how can I put a computer in maintainence mode using SCOM command shell API? I can see there is an API by the name 'New-maintainenceWindow' but that puts monitoring objects into maintainence mode and not any specific computer monitored by SCOM.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Perhaps I don't follow. A computer is an object in this case. Can you be more specific? I don't doing a new MM on a computer object doesn't put the healthwatcher service into MM also…

Maybe this will help?
