Description

This cmdlet contains more than one parameter set. You may only use parameters from one parameter set and you may not combine parameters from different parameter sets. For more information about how to use parameter sets, see Cmdlet parameter sets.

The Remove-SPManagedPath cmdlet deletes the managed path specified by the Identity parameter from the host header or the Web application. The Identity must be the partial URL of the managed path to be deleted.

If you are using host-named site collections, specify the HostHeader parameter. To delete a host-named site collection managed path, provide the HostHeader switch. Otherwise, you must specify the Web application that contains the managed path to be deleted.

For permissions and the most current information about Windows PowerShell for SharePoint Products, see the online documentation at SharePoint Server Cmdlets.

Examples

Depending on the confirmation level of the local system, the preceding example can prompt prior to execution.

------------------EXAMPLE 2-----------------------

Get-SPWebApplication | Remove-SPManagedPath "personal" -confirm:$false

This example removes the personal managed path from all Web applications in the farm. This command does not prompt for confirmation.

Parameters

-AssignmentCollection

Manages objects for the purpose of proper disposal. Use of objects, such as SPWeb or SPSite, can use large amounts of memory and use of these objects in Windows PowerShell scripts requires proper memory management. Using the SPAssignment object, you can assign objects to a variable and dispose of the objects after they are needed to free up memory. When SPWeb, SPSite, or SPSiteAdministration objects are used, the objects are automatically disposed of if an assignment collection or the Global parameter is not used.

When the Global parameter is used, all objects are contained in the global store. If objects are not immediately used, or disposed of by using the Stop-SPAssignment command, an out-of-memory scenario can occur.
