Description

The Save-CMDatabaseReplicationDiagnostic cmdlet saves diagnostic information for database replication issues for Configuration Manager in a specified file. This cmdlet runs diagnostics for a link between a parent and a child site databases. You can specify sites by either name or site code, but you cannot specify one site by name and the other by site code.

Configuration Manager database replication transfers data and merges changes made in a site database with the information stored in other sites in the Configuration Manager site hierarchy so that all sites share the same information. Configuration Manager configures database replication automatically between a parent and child site. Diagnostics identify problems in database replication.

Note

Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.

Examples

Example 1: Save database replication diagnostic

PS XYZ:\> Save-CMDatabaseReplicationDiagnostic -ChildSiteCode "CC2" -FileName "D:\Diagnostics\CCB_CC2_Diagnostics.csv" -ParentSiteCode "CCB"

This command saves database replication diagnostics in a file named CCB_CC2_Diagnostics.csv. The command specifies a parent and child site by using site codes.
