NAME Get-SmbWitnessClient
SYNOPSIS
Retrieves information about the SMB clients connected to the SMB witness servers in a cluster.
SYNTAX
Get-SmbWitnessClient [[-ClientName] <String[]>] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-Flags
<Microsoft.PowerShell.Cmdletization.GeneratedTypes.SmbWitnessClient.Flags[]>] [-State <State[]>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION
The Get-SmbWitnessClient cmdlet retrieves information about Server Message Block (SMB) witness client registrations with SMB witness servers in a
failover cluster. SMB witness clients can register for notification for multiple resources in the failover cluster, so there may be multiple entries for
the same SMB witness client.
PARAMETERS
-CimSession [<CimSession[]>]
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.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-ClientName [<String[]>]
Specifies one or more SMB clients by name.
Required? false
Position? 2
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Flags [<Microsoft.PowerShell.Cmdletization.GeneratedTypes.SmbWitnessClient.Flags[]>]
Specifies an array of flags.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? true(ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-State [<State[]>]
Specifies that the output is filtered based on the state of the SMB witness client registrations with SMB witness servers in a failover cluster. The
acceptable values for this parameter are:
-- Connected
-- Registered
-- RequestedNotifications
-- Cancelled
-- Disconnected
-- Unknown
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-ThrottleLimit [<Int32>]
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.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,
ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,
OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable. For more information, see
about_CommonParameters (https:/go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=113216).
INPUTS
None
OUTPUTS
None
Example 1: Get information about all the SMB clients for the witness servers in a cluster
PS C:\\> Get-SmbWitnessClient
Client Computer Name Witness Node Name File Server Node Name Network Name Share Name
-------------------- ----------------- --------------------- ------------ ----------
Server01 FileServer1 FileServer2 FSCluster Share
Server02 FileServer2 FileServer1 FSCluster Share
Server02 FileServer2 FileServer1 FSCluster
This example retrieves information about the all of the SMB clients connected to the SMB witness servers in a cluster.
Example 2: Get information about a named SMB client
PS C:\\>Get-SmbWitnessClient -ClientName "Server01"
Client Computer Name Witness Node Name File Server Node Name Network Name Share Name
-------------------- ----------------- --------------------- ------------ ----------
Server01 FileServer1 FileServer2 FSCluster Share
This example retrieves information about the SMB client named Server01 connected to the SMB witness servers in a cluster.
