Set-DfsnFolderTarget
Set-DfsnFolderTarget
Changes settings for a target of a DFS namespace folder.
Syntax
Parameter Set: SetNamespaceFolderTarget3
Set-DfsnFolderTarget [-Path] <String> [-TargetPath] <String> [[-State] <State> ] [[-ReferralPriorityClass] <ReferralPriorityClass> ] [[-ReferralPriorityRank] <UInt32> ] [-AsJob] [-CimSession <CimSession[]> ] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32> ] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [ <CommonParameters>]
Detailed Description
The Set-DfsnRootTarget cmdlet changes settings for a target of a Distributed File System (DFS) namespace folder. You can change the state of the DFS namespace target and configure priority class and priority rank for referrals.
A DFS namespace folder has one or more folder targets that are shared folders on computers. When a client attempts to connect to a folder, the DFS namespace server provides a list of folder targets, called referrals. The server determines the order for referrals and clients attempt to connect to a folder target in the order that the server provides.
For more information about DFS namespaces, see Overview of DFS Namespaces (https://technet.microsoft.com/library/cc730736) on TechNet.

-CimSession<CimSession[]>

-ReferralPriorityClass<ReferralPriorityClass>
Specifies the priority class for a DFS namespace folder target. Target priority offers you the ability to classify and rank in-site targets. You can specify targets to receive the highest or lowest preference, and you can divide the remaining targets based on their site cost for a DFS client to connect to them. The acceptable values for this parameter are:
-- GlobalHigh: The highest priority class for a DFS target. Targets assigned this class receive global preference.
-- SiteCostHigh: The highest site cost priority class for a DFS target. Targets assigned this class receive the most preference among targets of the same site cost for a given DFS client.
-- SiteCostNormal: The middle or normal site cost priority class for a DFS target.
-- SiteCostLow: The lowest site cost priority class for a DFS target. Targets assigned this class receive the least preference among targets of the same site cost for a given DFS client.
-- GlobalLow: The lowest level of priority class for a DFS target. Targets assigned this class receive the least preference globally.

-ReferralPriorityRank<UInt32>
Specifies the priority rank, as an integer, for a target of the DFS namespace folder. Lower values have greater preference. A value of zero (0) is the greatest preference.

-State<State>
Specifies the state of the DFS namespace folder target. The acceptable values for this parameter are:
-- Online
-- Offline
Clients do not receive referrals for a DFS namespace target that is offline.

-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.
