Description
The Get-DedupJob returns status and information for currently running or queued deduplication
jobs.
To run this cmdlet, you must start Windows PowerShell® with the Run as administrator option.
Examples
Example 1: Get information for jobs for specified volumes
Get-DedupJob -Volume "D:","F:"
This command gets status and information for currently running or queued deduplication jobs for the
D: and F: volumes.
Parameters
-AsJob
Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command
prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the
*-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the
Receive-Job cmdlet.
For more information about Windows PowerShell background jobs, see about_Jobs.
