Get-Hypxenserveraddress

Gets all the available addresses for a XenServer hypervisor connection.

Syntax

Get-HypXenServerAddress [-LiteralPath] <String> [-BearerToken <String>] [-VirtualSiteId <String>] [-AdminAddress <String>] [<CommonParameters>]
<!--NeedCopy-->

Detailed Description

Use this cmdlet to retrieve all the available hypervisor connection addresses that can be used to connect to the same XenServer pool. When used in conjunction with Add-HypHypervisorAddress, you can easily populate a connection with all the addresses that can be used to provide full failover support for a XenServer connection.

If the addresses are https addresses, the command uses the certificates installed on the XenServers to provide suitable https addresses where possible. Only servers that can be resolved are returned.

Parameters

Name Description Required? Pipeline Input Default Value
LiteralPath Specifies the path within a Host Service provider to the hypervisor connection item to which to add the address. The path specified must be in one of the following formats: :\Connections\ or :\Connections{HHypervisorConnection Uid>} true true (ByValue)  
BearerToken Specifies the bearer token assigned to the calling user false false  
VirtualSiteId Specifies the virtual site the PowerShell snap-in will connect to. false false  
AdminAddress Specifies the address of a XenDesktop controller that the PowerShell snap-in connects to. You can provide this as a host name or an IP address. false false LocalHost. Once a value is provided by any cmdlet, this value becomes the default.

Input Type

Return Values

System.String

Get-HypXenServerAddress returns a list of strings containing the available address.

Notes

For this to work as required with https connections, the certificates installed on the XenServers must be trusted by all controllers. Typically this means having the root certificate for the certificate trust chain installed on all controllers. Wildcard certificates are not supported for this operation.
In the case of failure, the following errors can result.
