Parameters

-AdminEmailAddress

Specifies a semicolon-separated list of email addresses for the recipients of any email that the server sends to the administrator.

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete. The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet. For more information about Windows PowerShell background jobs, see about_Jobs.

-CimSession

-CommandNotificationLimit

Specifies the minimum number of minutes between individual running events of a command-type notification. If multiple command notifications occur, the server runs the command notification only if at least this amount of time has passed since the server last performed this action.

-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

-EmailNotificationLimit
