This command sets the number of devices that a user can register to 10.

PS C:\> Set-AdfsDeviceRegistration -DevicesPerUser 10

Example 2: Configure the maximum inactive days for a device

This command configures the number of days before the Device Registration Service removes an inactive device object.

PS C:\> Set-AdfsDeviceRegistration -MaximumInactiveDays 90

Example 3: Set the service account for the Device Registration Service

The first command uses the Get-Credential cmlet to create a credential object for the Active Directory account under which the AD FS service runs. The command stores the credential object in the $Cred variable.

The second command sets the service account that has the ID Svc_adfs. The command specifies the credentials stored in $Cred for the Active Directory account under which the AD FS service runs.

PS C:\> $Cred = Get-Credential
PS C:\> Set-AdfsDeviceRegistration -ServiceAccountIdentifier "CONTOSO\Svc_adfs" -Credential $Cred
