Module:
UserAccessLogging

Disables UAL at the next restart.

Syntax

Disable-Ual
       [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
       [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]
       [-AsJob]
       [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Disable-Ual cmdlet disables User Access Logging (UAL) at the next restart of the server. You can use the CimSession parameter to run the cmdlet on a remote server. This cmdlet does not stop the UAL service.

You can use the Get-Ual cmdlet to check the startup status for UAL. You can use the Disable-Ual and Enable-Ual cmdlets to change the startup status.

For more information about UAL, see the User Access Logging Overview topic in the TechNet library at http://technet.microsoft.com/library/hh849634.aspx.

Examples

Example 1: Disable UAL at restart

PS C:\>Disable-Ual

This command disables UAL for the local server. The next time you restart the server, UAL logging does not begin. You can use the Get-Ual cmdlet to check UAL startup status.

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

-ThrottleLimit

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
