Add-ClusterScaleOutFileServerRole
Creates a clustered file server for scale-out application data.
Syntax
Parameter Set: InputObject
Add-ClusterScaleOutFileServerRole [[-Name] <String> ] [-Cluster <String> ] [-InputObject <PSObject> ] [-Wait <Int32> ] [ <CommonParameters>]
Detailed Description
The Add-ClusterScaleOutFileServerRole cmdlet creates a clustered file server for scale-out application data. A file server for scale-out application data provides storage for applications or virtual machines that leave files open for extended periods of time. Client connections are distributed across nodes for better throughput. This type of file server supports the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol. It does not support the Network File System (NFS) protocol, or certain role services such as File Server Resource Manager (FSRM) or Distributed File System (DFS) Replication.
Note: This cmdlet cannot be run remotely without Credential Security Service Provider (CredSSP) authentication on the server computer.
Parameters
