Detailed Description
The Set-NetAdapterVmq cmdlet sets the virtual machine queue (VMQ) properties of the network adapter. VMQ is a scaling networking technology for Hyper-V switch that improves network throughput by distributing processing of network traffic for multiple virtual machines (VMs) among multiple processors. A thorough familiarity with VMQ and dynamic VMQ is highly recommended before changing any default values with this cmdlet.

-BaseProcessorGroup<UInt16>
Specifies the processor group to be used by VMQ. Support for systems that have more than 64
logical processors is based on the concept of a processor group, which is a static set of up to 64
logical processors. Processor groups are numbered starting with 0
. Computers with fewer than 64
logical processors always have a single group, Group 0
.

-BaseProcessorNumber<Byte>
Specifies the starting processor to be used within the processor group for VMQ. Support for systems that have more than 64
logical processors is based on the concept of a processor group, which is a static set of up to 64
logical processors. Processor groups are numbered starting with 0
. Computers with fewer than 64
logical processors always have a single group, Group 0
. A logical processor is identified by a group number, using the BaseProcessorGroup parameter, and a group-relative processor number, using this parameter.

<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Verbose, -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -OutBuffer, and -OutVariable. For more information, see about_CommonParameters (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=113216).
Inputs
The input type is the type of the objects that you can pipe to the cmdlet.
Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/StandardCimv2/MSFT_NetAdapterVmqSettingData[]
The
Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance
object is a wrapper class that displays Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) objects. The path after the pound sign (#
) provides the namespace and class name for the underlying WMI object.
Outputs
The output type is the type of the objects that the cmdlet emits.
Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/StandardCimv2/MSFT_NetAdapterVmqSettingData
The
Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance
object is a wrapper class that displays Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) objects. The path after the pound sign (#
) provides the namespace and class name for the underlying WMI object.
Examples
EXAMPLE 1
This example enables VMQ on the network adapter named MyAdapter. Note: The Enable-NetAdapterVmq cmdlet is the preferred cmdlet to perform this operation.
PS C:\> Set-NetAdapterVmq –Name MyAdapter -Enabled $True
