Description

The Set-BCCache cmdlet modifies the cache file configuration. Use the Cache parameter to specify which cache should be configured.

Examples

Example 1

PS C:\>Set-BCCache -Path C:\datacache -MoveTo D:\datacache

This example moves the cache file from C:\datacache to D:\datacache.

Example 2

PS C:\>Get-BCDataCacheExtension | Where-Object -FilterScript {$_.MaxCacheSizeAsPercentageOfDiskVolume -Eq 10} | Set-BCCache -Percentage 20

This example increases data cache files from 10% to 20%.

Parameters

-AsJob

ps_cimcommon_asjob

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Cache

Specifies the cache which should be modified.

Type:CimInstance[]
Position:1
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-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-CimSessionhttp://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=227967 or Get-CimSessionhttp://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=227966 cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

Type:CimSession[]
Aliases:Session
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

Type:SwitchParameter
Aliases:cf
Position:Named
Default value:False
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Defragment

Specifies that the cache should be defragmented. Fragmented cache files store data less effectively. The BranchCache service detects cache fragmentation and raises an event in the Windows Event Log when it is time to defragment the cache.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Force

Runs the cmdlet without prompting for confirmation. By default the cmdlet asks for confirmation from the user before proceeding.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-MoveTo

Specifies the new location on disk for this cache file.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-PassThru

Sends items from the interactive window down the pipeline as input to other cmdlets. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output. To send items from the interactive window down the pipeline, click to select the items and then click OK. Shift-click and Ctrl-click are supported.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Path

Runs the cmdlet on the specified cache file.

Type:String
Position:1
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Percentage

Specifies the new size of this cache file. The size is a percentage of the disk.

Type:UInt32
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-SizeBytes

Specifies the new size of the cache file.

Type:UInt64
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ThrottleLimit

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.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-WhatIf

Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.
