Description

Use this cmdlet to create a relationship between boundary groups. Boundary groups that you link together are called neighbor boundary groups. A boundary group can have more than one relationship, each with a specific neighbor boundary group.

When a client fails to find an available site system in its current boundary group, the configuration of each relationship determines when it begins to search a neighbor boundary group. This search of other groups is called fallback.

For more information, see Configure boundary groups for Configuration Manager.

Note

Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.

Examples

Example 1: Create a relationship for only content

This command creates a relationship between the Swindon and London boundary groups. Distribution points fall back after five minutes. Software update points and management points never fall back.

New-CMBoundaryGroupRelationship -SourceGroupName "Swindon" -DestinationGroupName "London" -FallbackDPMinutes 5 -FallbackSupMinutes -1 -FallbackMPMinutes -1

Parameters

-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.
