Syntax

Parameter Set: Set1
Set-DhcpServerAuditLog [[-Enable] <Boolean> ] [[-Path] <String> ] [-AsJob] [-CimSession <CimSession[]> ] [-ComputerName <String> ] [-DiskCheckInterval <UInt32> ] [-MaxMBFileSize <UInt32> ] [-MinMBDiskSpace <UInt32> ] [-PassThru] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32> ] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Set-DhcpServerAuditLog cmdlet sets the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server service audit log configuration on the DHCP server service running on the computer This cmdlet also sets the enabled state for the DHCP server service audit log.

Parameters

-AsJob

-CimSession<CimSession[]>

Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

-ComputerName<String>

Specifies the DNS name, or IPv4 or IPv6 address, of the target computer running the DHCP server service.

-DiskCheckInterval<UInt32>

Specifies the number of audit log events after which the DHCP server service will check the available disk space as specifies in the MinMBDiskSpace parameter.

-Enable<Boolean>

Specifies the enabled state of the DHCP server service audit log. The acceptable values for this parameter are: True or False.

-MaxMBFileSize<UInt32>

Specifies the maximum size of the audit log, in megabytes (MB).

-MinMBDiskSpace<UInt32>

Specifies the minimum required disk space, in megabytes (MB), for audit log storage.
Before logging a new audit log message, the DHCP server service checks if the minimum disk space specified by this parameter is available on the disk.
If minimum disk space is not available, then the DHCP server service stops audit logging until the required minimum disk space is available.
If this parameter value is set to 0 or left as default, then the minimum disk space is set to 20 MB.

-PassThru

Returns an object representing the item with which you are working. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

-Path<String>

Specifies the path to the directory where the audit log files are created by the DHCP server service.

-ThrottleLimit<Int32>

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.

-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

-WhatIf

Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.

<CommonParameters>

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Verbose, -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -OutBuffer, and -OutVariable. For more information, see    about_CommonParameters (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=113216).

Inputs

The input type is the type of the objects that you can pipe to the cmdlet.

• Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#root/Microsoft/Windows/DHCP/DhcpServerAuditLog

  The Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance object is a wrapper class that displays Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) objects. The path after the pound sign (#) provides the namespace and class name for the underlying WMI object.

Outputs

The output type is the type of the objects that the cmdlet emits.

• Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#root/Microsoft/Windows/DHCP/DhcpServerAuditLog

  The Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance object is a wrapper class that displays Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) objects. The path after the pound sign (#) provides the namespace and class name for the underlying WMI object.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

This example enables the audit log of the DHCP server service and sets the path for the audit log to D:\dhcpauditlog\ directory. This cmdlet also sets the maximum size for the audit log file to 100 MB.

PS C:\> Set-DhcpServerAuditLog -ComputerName dhcpserver.contoso.com -Enable True -Path D:\dhcpauditlog\ -MaxMBFileSize 100
