Get-UalServerUser

Get-UalServerUser

Gets UAL records for a server per user.

Syntax

Parameter Set: ByName
Get-UalServerUser [-ActivityCount <UInt32[]> ] [-AsJob] [-ChassisSerialNumber <String[]> ] [-CimSession <CimSession[]> ] [-FirstSeen <DateTime[]> ] [-LastSeen <DateTime[]> ] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32> ] [-Username <String[]> ] [-UUID <String[]> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Get-UalServerUser cmdlet gets User Access Logging (UAL) records for client requests, by user, for services on a server. Use the CimSession parameter to run the cmdlet on a remote server.

This cmdlet organizes information by user. For each user that accesses a service on a server, the cmdlet returns a record that specifies the user, the chassis serial number for the server, and Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) for the server. The record also includes the first time the client accessed the service, the most recent time the client accessed the service, and the total number of times the client accessed the service.

You can specify parameter values to narrow the records that this cmdlet returns. For instance, you can get records for only a specified user.

For more information about UAL, see the User Access Logging Overview topic in the TechNet library at https://technet.microsoft.com/library/hh849634.aspx.

Parameters

-ActivityCount<UInt32[]>

Specifies an array of the number of access requests by a client for a service.

-AsJob

-ChassisSerialNumber<String[]>

Specifies an array of strings. Each member contains the UUID of a server.

-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.

-FirstSeen<DateTime[]>

Specifies an array of dates, as DateTime objects. A time represents when the client accessed the service for the first time.

-LastSeen<DateTime[]>

Specifies an array of dates, as DateTime objects. A time represents when the client accessed the service for the most recent time.

-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.

-Username<String[]>

Specifies an array of user names that request a service.

-UUID<String[]>

Specifies an UUID for the server. UAL gets this identifier from the SMBIOS.

<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

Outputs

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

Examples

Example 1: Get access records for a specified user
