Suspend-DfsReplicationGroup

Suspend-DfsReplicationGroup

Suspends replication between computers regardless of schedule.

Syntax

Parameter Set: Default
Suspend-DfsReplicationGroup [-GroupName] <String[]> [-SourceComputerName] <String> [-DestinationComputerName] <String> [-DurationInMinutes] <UInt32> [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Suspend-DfsReplicationGroup cmdlet suspends replication between computers, even if replication was scheduled by either a replication group or a connection.

This cmdlet ignores the schedule for a specified number of minutes. This is typically preferable to altering the schedule temporarily to prevent replication, because this cmdlet does not require Active Directory replication and LDAP polling.

Parameters

-DestinationComputerName<String>

Specifies the name of the receiving computer. A destination computer is also called an inbound or downstream computer. This computer overrides its schedule and stops inbound replication.

Examples

Example 1: Suspend replication between servers

This command suspends replication from server SRV01 to SRV02 in the RG01 replication group for 15 minutes, even if the replication happens during an open replication schedule.

PS C:\> Suspend-DfsReplicationGroup -GroupName "RG01" -SourceComputerName SRV01 -DestinationComputerName SRV02 -DurationInMinutes 15

Example 2: Suspend replication between servers with verbose output

This command suspends replication from server SRV01 to SRV02 in the RG01 replication group for 5 minutes, even if the replication happens during an open replication schedule, and displays output.

PS C:\> Suspend-DfsReplicationGroup -GroupName "RG01" -SourceComputerName SRV01 -DestinationComputerName SRV02 -DurationInMinutes 5 -Verbose
