Clear-PrtgCache

NAME Clear-PrtgCache



SYNOPSIS

Clears cached data used by a PRTG Network Monitor server.





SYNTAX

Clear-PrtgCache [-Type] {General | GraphData} [-Force <SwitchParameter>] [<CommonParameters>]





DESCRIPTION

The Clear-PrtgCache cmdlet clears Geo Map, Active Directory authentication and Graph Data details from a PRTG

server. Geo Map and Active Directory authentication caches are grouped together under the General cache type.

Graph Data is cleared separately, under the GraphData cache type.



When Graph Data is cleared, the PRTG Core Service will automatically restart. To prevent this happening

accidentally, Clear-PrtgCache will prompt you to confirm you are sure you wish to proceed. This can be overridden

by specifying the -Force parameter.
