Parameters
1| Parameter | Required | Type | Description | ||
| IrmEnabled | Required | System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter | Specifies whether or not IRM is enabled in the tenant. The default value is false. | ||
| 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.
| ||
| CertificatePassword | Optional | System.Security.SecureString | Specifies the password to access the Service Authentication Certificate. This password is required in order to install the certificate in the machine certificate store. | ||
| 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 | ||
| ServiceAuthenticationCertificate | Optional | System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2 | Specifies the service authentication certificate. If the parameter is specified and not null, the authentication certificate is used when connecting from this farm to the RMS server. If the parameter is not specified, the local farm connects to RMS server using integrated windows authentication. | ||
| SubscriptionScopeSettingsEnabled | Optional | System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter | Specifies whether or not IRM can be configured at the site subscription scope. Site subscriptions can only configure custom IRM settings if IRM is enabled at the Farm scope. | ||
| UseActiveDirectoryDiscovery | Optional | System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter | Specifies whether or not the RMS service should be used for discovery that will determine the address of the RMS server in the domain. | ||
| WhatIf | Optional | System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter | Displays a message that describes the effect of the command instead of executing the command. For more information, type the following command: get-help about_commonparameters |
