Update-DfsrConfigurationFromAD

  • Reference
Module:
DFSR

Initiates an update of the DFS Replication service.

Syntax

Update-DfsrConfigurationFromAD
      [[-ComputerName] <String[]>]
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Update-DfsrConfigurationFromAD cmdlet initiates an update of the DFS Replication service. The cmdlet forces the DFS Replication service to immediately perform a full Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) poll of the Active Directory Domain Services (AD°DS) for configuration changes, and applies any changes to the service.

By default, the DFS Replication service queries domain controllers every five minutes by using a lightweight check for membership configuration changes in AD°DS. This periodic check speeds up the service response to certain types of configuration changes. If the DFS Replication service detects a new membership, a full poll follows. By default, the DFS Replication service performs a full poll every hour.

Examples

Example 1: Update the DFS Replication service

PS C:\> Update-DfsrConfigurationFromAD -ComputerName "SRV01","SRV02" -Verbose


VERBOSE: Performing operation "Update-DfsrConfigurationFromAD" on Target "SRV01".
VERBOSE: Successfully updated the DFSR Active Directory Domain Service configuration on the computer named SRV01.
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Update-DfsrConfigurationFromAD" on Target "SRV02".
VERBOSE: Successfully updated the DFSR Active Directory Domain Service configuration on the computer named SRV02.

This command forces the remote DFS Replication servers SRV01 and SRV02 to poll AD°DS immediately and apply any changes to the DFS Replication service.

Parameters

-ComputerName

Specifies an array of names of member computers. You can use a comma separated list and the wildcard character (*). The cmdlet forces the DFS Replication service on the computers to poll Active Directory immediately.

If you do not specify this parameter, the cmdlet uses the local computer. To return a response, use the Verbose parameter.
