Configures an application controlled by a script that runs in Windows Script Host, within a failover cluster.

Syntax

Add-ClusterGenericScriptRole
   -ScriptFilePath <String>
   [-Storage <StringCollection>]
   [-StaticAddress <StringCollection>]
   [-IgnoreNetwork <StringCollection>]
   [[-Name] <String>]
   [-Wait <Int32>]
   [-InputObject <PSObject>]
   [-Cluster <String>]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Add-ClusterGenericScriptRole cmdlet configures an application controlled by a script that runs in Windows Script Host, within a failover cluster.

The script provides the cluster software with information about the current state of the application. As needed, the cluster software will restart or fail over the script. Through the script, the application will be restarted or failed over.

Note

This cmdlet cannot be run remotely without Credential Security Service Provider (CredSSP) authentication on the server computer.

Examples

Example 1: Configure a script to run on a failover cluster

Add-ClusterGenericScriptRole -ScriptFilePath "script1.vbs"

This example configures the script named script1.vbs to run within a failover cluster, using defaults for the name and IP address, and doesn't assign a disk.

Example 2: Configure a script on a failover cluster and assign a clustered script name

Add-ClusterGenericScriptRole -ScriptFilePath "script1.vbs" -Storage "Cluster Disk 4" -Name "script1"

This example configures the script named script1.vbs to run within a failover cluster and use Cluster Disk 4. The cmdlet assigns the clustered script the name script1.

Example 3: Configure a script to run on a fail over cluster without waiting for resources

Add-ClusterGenericScriptRole -ScriptFilePath "script1.vbs" -Wait 0

This example configures the script called script1.vbs to run within a failover cluster, using defaults for the name and IP address, and doesn't assign a disk. The cmdlet completes without waiting for all resources to come online.

Parameters

-Cluster

Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-IgnoreNetwork

Type:StringCollection
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-InputObject

Specifies the cluster on which to create the highly available script.

Type:PSObject

Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Name

Specifies the name of the highly available script to create.

Type:String
Position:0
