Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Type | Description | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Database | Required | Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell.SPDatabasePipeBind | Specifies the scale-out database from which to clear the logs. | ||
| 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.

| 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 | ||
| LogEntryTimeout | Optional | System.Int32 | Specifies the time-out value in minutes for the log entries. If there is at least one log entry which is more recent than this value, no log entries will be deleted. | ||
| 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 |
