Description

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this topic lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1

Add-GlobalMonitoringOverride -Identity "FrontendTransport\OnPremisesInboundProxy" -PropertyName Enabled -PropertyValue 0 -Duration 30.00:00:00 -ItemType Probe

This example adds a global monitoring override that disables the OnPremisesInboundProxy probe for 30 days. Note that the value of Identity is case-sensitive.

Example 2

Add-GlobalMonitoringOverride -Identity "MailboxSpace\StorageLogicalDriveSpaceEscalate" -PropertyName Enabled -PropertyValue 0 -ItemType Responder -ApplyVersion "15.01.0225.0422"

This example adds a global monitoring override that disables the StorageLogicalDriveSpaceEscalate responder for all Exchange 2016 servers running version 15.01.0225.0422. Note that the value of Identity is case-sensitive.

Parameters

-ApplyVersion

The ApplyVersion parameter specifies the version of Exchange that gets the override. If an Exchange server is older or newer than the version you specify, the override isn't applied to the server. Typically, you increase the Exchange version by applying Cumulative Updates or Service Packs.

Valid input for this parameter is an Exchange version number in the format 15.0x.xxxx.xxx.

You can't use this parameter with the Duration parameter.

Type:Version
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019

-BuildRange

This parameter is reserved for internal Microsoft use.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019

-Confirm

The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.

  • Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax: -Confirm:$false.
  • Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.
Type:SwitchParameter
Aliases:cf
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019

-DomainController

The DomainController parameter specifies the domain controller that's used by this cmdlet to read data from or write data to Active Directory. You identify the domain controller by its fully qualified domain name (FQDN). For example, dc01.contoso.com.

The DomainController parameter isn't supported on Edge Transport servers. An Edge Transport server uses the local instance of Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) to read and write data.

Type:Fqdn
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019

-Duration

The Duration parameter specifies the length of time that the override is active.

To specify a value, enter it as a time span: dd.hh:mm:ss where dd = days, hh = hours, mm = minutes and ss = seconds.

For example, 30.10:00:00 specifies 30 days and 10 hours.

You can't use this parameter with the ApplyVersion parameter.

Type:EnhancedTimeSpan
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019

-Identity

The Identity parameter specifies the identity of the probe, monitor, or responder. This parameter uses the syntax HealthSetName\MonitoringItemName[\TargetResource]. Note that the values are case sensitive. For example, use AD\ActiveDirectoryConnectivityServerReboot, not ad\activedirectoryconnectivityserverreboot.

Type:String
Position:1
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019
