Set-SCOMHeartbeatSetting

Modifies the agent and server heartbeat settings for a management group.

Syntax

Parameter Set: Empty
Set-SCOMHeartbeatSetting [-ComputerName <String[]> ] [-Credential <PSCredential> ] [-HeartbeatInterval <TimeSpan> ] [-MissingHeartbeatThreshold <Int32> ] [-PassThru] [-SCSession <Connection[]> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Set-SCOMHeartbeatSetting cmdlet modifies the agent and server heartbeat settings for an System Center 2012 – Operations Manager management group. You can set the heartbeat interval and the missing heartbeat threshold.

By default, this cmdlet uses the active persistent connection to a management group. Use the SCSession parameter to specify a different persistent connection. You can create a temporary connection to a management group by using the ComputerName and Credential parameters. For more information, type Get-Help about_OpsMgr_Connections.

Parameters

-ComputerName<String[]>

Specifies an array of names of computers. The cmdlet establishes temporary connections with management groups for these computers. You can use NetBIOS names, IP addresses, or fully qualified domain names (FQDNs). To specify the local computer, type the computer name, localhost, or a dot (.).

The System Center Data Access service must be running on the computer. If you do not specify a computer, the cmdlet uses the computer for the current management group connection.
