Name

Required

System.String

Specifies the name of the new Word Automation Services application.

The type must be a valid name of a Word Automation Services application; for example, WordSvcApp1.

ApplicationPool

Required

Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell.SPIisWebServiceApplicationPoolPipeBind

Specifies the existing IIS-managed application pool in which this instance of Word Automation Services runs.

The type must be a valid GUID, in the form 12345678-90ab-cdef-1234-567890bcdefgh; a valid name of an application pool (for example, AppPoolName1); or an instance of a valid IISWebServiceApplicationPool object.

AssignmentCollection

Optional

Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell.SPAssignmentCollection

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.

Note:
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.

Confirm

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

Prompts you for confirmation before executing the command. For more information, type the following command: get-help about_commonparameters

DatabaseCredential

Optional

System.Management.Automation.PSCredential

When the DatabaseCredential parameter is specified, the DatabaseName and DatabaseServer parameters are required.

DatabaseName

Optional

System.String

Specifies the name of the database to create for the new Word Automation Services application.

The type must be a valid SQL database name; for example, MetadataDB1.

DatabaseServer

Optional

System.String

Specifies the name of the host server for the Word Automation Services database.

The type must be a valid SQL database server host name; for example, SQLServerHost1.

Default

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

Specifies that the service application proxy is added to the farm’s default proxy group for this Web application.

PartitionMode

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

Specifies that this service behaves uniquely on a partitioned set of site collections. This property cannot be changed after the application is provisioned.

WhatIf
