Get-SpbmCapability

NAME Get-SpbmCapability



SYNOPSIS

This cmdlet retrieves capability schema.





SYNTAX

Get-SpbmCapability [[-Name] <String[]>] [-Category <String[]>] [-Server <VIServer[]>] [-SpbmLineOfServiceType

<SpbmLineOfServiceType[]>] [<CommonParameters>]





DESCRIPTION

This cmdlet retrieves capability schema sorted by alphabetical order of the Name field. Each capability schema

object has a unique identifier and contains the namespace to which the capability schema object belongs. Each

registered namespace must be unique. You can relate a capability schema object with a unique vendor and resource

type by using the namespace. After any VAIOFilter CRUD operation, there is an expected delay of approximately 30

seconds before the changes are reflected in the Get-SpbmCapability cmdlet.



To discover a namespace, run "Get-SpbmCapability | select Namespace -unique".
