| Parameter | Required | Type | Description | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Identity | Required | Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell.SPSitePipeBind | Specifies the URL or GUID of the site collection to configure, or refers to an SPSite object that contains sites to configure. The type must be a valid URL, in the form http://server_name; a valid GUID, in the form 12345678-90ab-cdef-1234-567890bcdefgh; or an SPSite object. | ||
| AdministrationSiteType | Optional | Microsoft.SharePoint.SPAdministrationSiteType | Specifies the site type. Valid values are None or TentantAdministration. | ||
| AssignmentCollection | Optional | Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell.SPAssignmentCollection | Manages objects for the purpose of proper disposal. Use of objects, such as SPWeb or SPSite, can use large amounts of memory and use of these objects in Windows PowerShell scripts requires proper memory management. Using the SPAssignment object, you can assign objects to a variable and dispose of the objects after they are needed to free up memory. When SPWeb, SPSite, or SPSiteAdministration objects are used, the objects are automatically disposed of if an assignment collection or the Global parameter is not used.
