Update-AIPScanner

Updates the database schema for the Azure Information Protection scanner.

Syntax

Update-AIPScanner
      [-Cluster |
      -Profile <String>]
      [-Force]
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Update-AIPScanner cmdlet updates the database schema for the Azure Information Protection scanner and if required, the scanner service account is also granted delete permissions for the scanner database.

Run this cmdlet after upgrading your Azure Information Protection client.

For more information, see Installing the Azure Information Protection scanner from the admin guide for the unified labeling client.

Run this cmdlet with an account that has the database-level role of db_owner for the configuration database that the scanner is using, named AIPScannerUL_<cluster_name>.

Examples

Example 1: Update the scanner after the Azure Information Protection client has been upgraded, and set a scanner cluster name

PS C:\> Update-AIPScanner -cluster USWEST

This command updates the database schema for the Azure Information Protection scanner, and sets the cluster name to USWEST rather than use the default name of the computer.

You are prompted to continue and if you confirm, the scanner then gets is configuration from the USWEST scanner cluster that you configure by using the Azure portal.

The Azure Information Protection scanner is updated successfully, the scanner database is renamed to AIPScanner_USWEST, and the scanner now gets its configuration from the Azure Information Protection service.

For reference purposes, a backup of your old configuration is stored in %localappdata%\Microsoft\MSIP\ScannerConfiguration.bak.
