Detailed Description

The Set-BrokerAssignmentPolicyRule cmdlet modifies an existing desktop rule in the site’s assignment policy.

A desktop rule in the assignment policy defines the users who are entitled to self-service persistent machine assignments from the rule’s desktop group. A rule defines how many machines a user is allowed from the group for delivery of full desktop sessions.

Changing a desktop rule does not alter machine assignments that have already been made by the rule, nor does it affect active sessions to those machines in any way.

Parameters

Name Description Required? Pipeline Input Default Value
InputObject The desktop rule in the assignment policy to be modified. true true (ByValue)  
Name Specifies the name of the desktop rule in the assignment policy to be modified. true true (ByPropertyName)  
PassThru This cmdlet does not generate any output, unless you use the PassThru parameter, in which case it returns the affected record. false false False
AddExcludedUsers Adds the specified users to the excluded users filter of the rule, that is, the users and groups who are explicitly denied an entitlement to a machine assignment from this rule.
See the ExcludedUsers parameter for more information.		 false false  
AddIncludedUsers Adds the specified users to the included users filter of the rule, that is, the users and groups who are granted an entitlement to a machine assignment by the rule.
See the IncludedUsers parameter for more information.		 false false  
ColorDepth Changes the color depth of any desktop sessions to machines assigned by the rule.
Valid values are $null, FourBit, EightBit, SixteenBit, and TwentyFourBit.
The default null value indicates that the equivalent setting from the rule’s desktop group is used.		 false false  
Description Changes the description of the desktop rule. The text may be visible to the end user, for example, as a tooltip associated with the desktop entitlement.
A null value indicates that the equivalent setting from the rule’s desktop group is used.		 false false  
Enabled Enables or disables the desktop rule. A disabled rule is ignored when evaluating the site’s assignment policy. false false  
ExcludedUserFilterEnabled Enables or disables the excluded users filter. If the filter is disabled then any user entries in the filter are ignored when assignment policy rules are evaluated. false false  
ExcludedUsers Changes the excluded users filter of the desktop rule, that is, the users and groups who are explicitly denied an entitlement to a machine assignment from this rule.
This can be used to exclude users or groups who would otherwise gain access by groups specified in the included users filter.		 false false  
IconUid Changes the unique ID of the icon used to display the machine assignment entitlement to the user, and of the assigned desktop itself following the assignment.
The default null value indicates that the equivalent setting from the rule’s desktop group is used.		 false false  
IncludedUserFilterEnabled Enables or disables the included users filter. If the filter is disabled then any user who satisfies the requirements of the access policy is implicitly granted an entitlement to a machine assignment by the rule.
Users who would be implicitly granted access when the filter is disabled can still be explicitly denied access using the excluded users filter.
For rules that relate to RemotePC desktop groups however, if the included user filter is disabled, the rule is effectively disabled.		 false false  
IncludedUsers Changes the included users filter of the rule, that is, the users and groups who are granted an entitlement to a machine assignment by the rule.
If a user appears explicitly in the excluded users filter of the rule, or is a member of a group that appears in the excluded users filter, no entitlement is granted whether or not the user appears in the included users filter.		 false false  
MaxDesktops The number of machines from the rule’s desktop group to which a user is entitled. Where an entitlement is granted to a user group rather than an individual, the number of machines applies to each member of the user group independently. false false  
PublishedName Changes the published name of the machine assignment entitlement as seen by the user. Changing the published name does not affect the names of desktops that have already been assigned by the rule.
The default null value indicates that the equivalent setting from the rule’s desktop group is used.		 false false  
RemoveExcludedUsers Removes the specified users from the excluded users filter of the rule, that is, the users and groups who are explicitly denied an entitlement to a machine assignment from this rule.
See the ExcludedUsers parameter for more information.		 false false  
RemoveIncludedUsers Removes the specified users from the included users filter of the desktop rule, that is, the users and groups who are granted an entitlement to a machine assignment by the rule.
See the IncludedUsers parameter for more information.		 false false  
SecureIcaRequired Changes whether the desktop rule requires the SecureICA protocol for desktop sessions to machines assigned using the entitlement.
The default null value indicates that the equivalent setting from the rule’s desktop group is used.		 false false  
LoggingId Specifies the identifier of the high level operation that this cmdlet call forms a part of. Desktop Studio and Desktop Director typically create High Level Operations. PowerShell scripts can also wrap a series of cmdlet calls in a High Level Operation by way of the Start-LogHighLevelOperation and Stop-LogHighLevelOperation cmdlets. false false  
AdminAddress Specifies the address of a XenDesktop controller that the PowerShell snapin will connect to. This can be provided as a host name or an IP address. false false Localhost. Once a value is provided by any cmdlet, this value will become the default.
BearerToken Specifies the bearer token assigned to the calling user false false  

Input Type

Citrix.Broker.Admin.Sdk.Assignmentpolicyrule

The desktop rule within the assignment policy to be modified.

Return Values

None Or Citrix.Broker.Admin.Sdk.Assignmentpolicyrule

This cmdlet does not generate any output, unless you use the PassThru parameter, in which case it generates a Citrix.Broker.Admin.SDK.AssignmentPolicyRule object.

Examples

Example 1 

C:\PS> Set-BrokerAssignmentPolicyRule 'Temp Staff' -AddIncludedUsers office\interns
<!--NeedCopy-->

Description

Adds the user group OFFICE\interns to the Temp Staff desktop rule in the assignment policy. This grants all members of that user group entitlements to machines in the rule’s desktop group. The number of machine entitlements per user and the session properties of the desktops obtained using the rule are determined by the rule’s other properties.

Example 2 

C:\PS> Set-BrokerAssignmentPolicyRule 'Temp Staff' -Enabled $false
<!--NeedCopy-->

Description

Disables the Temp Staff desktop rule in the assignment policy. This prevents further machine assignments being made using this rule until it is re-enabled. However, access to machines already assigned using the rule is not impacted.
