Add-ClusterFileServerRole

Creates a clustered file server (resource group that includes one or more disks, on which shared folders can be created for users).

Syntax

Parameter Set: InputObject
Add-ClusterFileServerRole [[-Name] <String> ] -Storage <StringCollection> [-Cluster <String> ] [-IgnoreNetwork <StringCollection> ] [-InputObject <PSObject> ] [-StaticAddress <StringCollection> ] [-Wait <Int32> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Add-ClusterFileServerRole cmdlet creates a clustered file server (resource group that includes one or more disks, on which shared folders can be created for users).

When adding a clustered file server, specify a name for the file server, any IP address information that is not automatically supplied by your DHCP settings, and the storage volume or volumes that the clustered file server should use.

Note: This cmdlet cannot be run remotely without Credential Security Service Provider (CredSSP) authentication on the server computer.

Parameters

-Cluster<String>

Examples

Example 1

This example creates a clustered file server using Cluster Disk 8, and assigns a default name.

PS C:\> Add-ClusterFileServerRole -Storage "Cluster Disk 8"

Example 2

This example creates a clustered file server using Cluster Disk 6, and assigns the name cluster1FS12.

PS C:\> Add-ClusterFileServerRole -Storage "Cluster Disk 6" -Name cluster1FS12

Example 3

This example creates a clustered file server using Cluster Disk 8, and assigns a default name. The cmdlet completes without waiting for all resources to come online.

PS C:\> Add-ClusterFileServerRole -Storage "Cluster Disk 8" -Wait 0
