Description
The Get-HpcClusterProperty cmdlet gets the cluster-wide properties for the specified HPC cluster. Cluster-wide properties include parameters, environment variables, installation credentials, credentials to use for sending email notifications, the naming series for new compute nodes, and the Windows Deployment Services mode. If you do not specify any parameters, this cmdlet get the values for all of these items.
Examples
Example 1: Get the value of a configuration parameter
PS C:\>Get-HpcClusterProperty -Parameter -Name "SpoolDir"
This command gets the value of a configuration parameter for the HPC cluster named SpoolDir.
Example 2: Get the value of an environment variable
PS C:\>Get-HpcClusterProperty -Environment -Name:CCP_CLUSTER_NAME
This command gets the value of an environment variable named CCP_CLUSTER_NAME.
Example 3: Get the node naming series
PS C:\>Get-HpcClusterProperty -NodeNamingSeries
This command gets the naming series that is used to generate names for new compute nodes that you add to the HPC cluster.
Example 4: Get the credentials to install nodes
PS C:\>Get-HpcClusterProperty -InstallCredential
This command gets the credentials that are used to install new compute nodes and run diagnostic tests.
Example 5: Get email credentials
PS C:\>Get-HpcClusterProperty -EmailCredential
This command gets the credentials that are used when sending email notifications.
Parameters
-AutoGrowShrink
You cannot specify the EmailCredential parameter with any of the following parameters: Environment, InstallCredential, NodeNamingSeries, Parameter, and WDSMode.
This parameter was introduced in HPC Pack 2008 R2. It is not supported in previous versions.

| Value from remaining arguments: | False |
-ClusterConnectionString
Specifies an array of cluster connection strings for the cluster to which you want to add the device drivers.
The value format is host1,host2,host3.
If you do not specify the ClusterConnectionString parameter, this cmdlet uses the connection string on the head node that the CCP_CONNECTIONSTRING environment variable specifies.
To set this environment variable, run the following cmdlet: Set-Content Env: CCP_CONNECTIONSTRING \<head_node_name\>.
This parameter was introduced in HPC Pack 2016.

-EmailCredential
Gets the user account that the HPC cluster uses to send email notifications, if the email server requires credentials. The account must have administrative permissions on the head node.
You cannot specify the EmailCredential parameter with any of the following parameters: Environment, InstallCredential, NodeNamingSeries, Parameter, and WDSMode.
This parameter was introduced in HPC Pack 2008 R2. It is not supported in previous versions.

-Environment
Gets the values of cluster-wide environment variables. To get the value of a specific cluster-wide environment variable, use the Name parameter in addition to the Environment parameter.
The CCP_CLUSTER_NAME, CCP_MPI_NETMASK, CCP_SERVICEREGISTRATION_PATH, and WCF_NETWORKPREFIX environment variables are present by default. The CCP_CLUSTER_NAME environment variable specifies the name of the cluster, which is the same as the name of the computer that serves as the head node. The CCP_MPI_NETMASK environment variable specifies the network mask for the network interface that the Message Passing Interface (MPI) process uses. The CCP_SERVICEREGISTRATION_PATH environment variable specifies the location where the configuration files for the service-oriented architecture (SOA) services should be placed to register the services, and is \\%CCP_CLUSTER_NAME%\HpcServiceRegistration by default. The WCF_NETWORKPREFIX environment variable specifies the prefix for the network that the Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) broker and service use for internal traffic.
You can set the value of these environment variables and create your own environment variables by using the Set-HpcClusterProperty cmdlet.
You cannot specify the Environment parameter with any of the following parameters: InstallCredential, EmailCredential, NodeNamingSeries, Parameter, and WDSMode.
