Description

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this article lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you might not have access to some parameters if they aren't 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

Set-AvailabilityReportOutage -ReportDate:"2009-12-02" -Identity: "OWA Service" -Comment:"Overriding particular outage" -DowntimeMinutes:40

This example overrides the specified outage with a new downtime value of 40 minutes.

Parameters

-Comment

Applicable: Exchange Server 2010

The Comment parameter describes the outage that was inserted.

Parameter properties

Type:String
Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

Identity
Position:Named
Mandatory:True
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

-Confirm

Applicable: Exchange Server 2010

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.
