Detailed Description

Lets you import a separately created AppDisk to the Application library service.

Parameters

Name	Description	Required?	Pipeline Input	Default Value
HypervisorDiskId	The infrastructure UID (as returned by Get-HypConfigurationDataForItem) of the disk to import.	true	false
AppDiskName	The name of the AppDisk.	true	false
PreparationMachine	The SID of the machine to use as the preparation machine for this operation. The machine must be within a valid Machine Catalog.	true	false
HostingUnitName	The name of the hosting unit used for the AppDisk.	true	false
HostingUnitUid	The identifier for the hosting unit used for the AppDisk.	true	false
Scope	The administration scopes to be applied to the new AppDisk.	false	false
RunAsynchronously	Indicates whether or not the command returns before it is complete. If specified, the command returns an identifier for the task that was created. This task can be monitored using the Get-AppLibTask command.	false	false	false
PurgeJobOnSuccess	Indicates that the task history is removed from the database when the task has finished. This can only be specified for tasks that are not run asynchronously.	false	false
AppDiskDescription	The description of the AppDisk.	false	false
SkipAppDnaAnalysis	Indicates that AppDNA analysis of the AppDisk should be skipped.	false	false	false
LoggingId	Specifies the identifier of the high-level operation this cmdlet call forms a part of. Citrix Studio and 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
BearerToken	Specifies the bearer token assigned to the calling user	false	false
TraceParent	Specifies the trace parent assigned for internal diagnostic tracing use	false	false
TraceState	Specifies the trace state assigned for internal diagnostic tracing use	false	false
VirtualSiteId	Specifies the virtual site the PowerShell snap-in will connect to.	false	false
AdminAddress	Specifies the address of a XenDesktop controller the PowerShell snap-in will connect 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.Guid

When the RunAsynchronously identifier is specified, this GUID is returned and provides the task identifier

System.Management.Automation.Pscustomobject

System.Management.Automation.PSCustomObject This object provides details of the task that was run and contains the following information: TaskId <Guid> The identifier for the task that was performed. Active <Boolean> Indicates whether the task is still processing or is complete. Host <string> The name of the host on which the task is running or was run. DateStarted <DateTime> The date and time that the task was initiated. LastUpdateTime <DateTime> The date and time of the last task status update DateFinished <DateTime> The date and time that the task finished execution Metadata <Metadata[]> Associated key-value data TaskState <string> Where in its lifecycle the task is CurrentOperation <string> Operation specific phase of the overall “Running” task state. TerminatingError < Citrix.Fma.Sdk.ServiceCore.CommonCmdlets.TaskterminatingError> Diagnostic information in the case of a complete task failure ActiveElapsedTime <int> How many seconds of active execution the task has taken Type <string> The type of task. For this cmdlet’s tasks, this is always ImportAppDisk. AppDiskName <string> The name of the AppDisk that the task was for. AppDiskUid <string> The identifier of the AppDisk that the task was for. Scopes <Citrix.Fma.Sdk.ServiceCoreScopeReference[]> The delegated administration scopes to which the AppDisk will belong. TaskStateInformation <string> Additional information about the current task state. TaskProgress <double> The progress of the task 0-100%. DiskLocalUid <Guid> The identifier of the AppDisk lineage. DiskLocalVersion <Guid> The identifier of the AppDisk within its lineage. RemoteTaskId <Guid> The identifier of the associated disk management task on the Machine Creation Service HostingUnitName <string> The name of the associated hosting unit HostingUnitUid <Guid> The indentifier of the associated hosting unit VirtualDiskId <Guid> The identifier of the AppDisk stack DiskId <string> The hypervisor’s identifier for the disk being imported RunAppDnaAnalysis <bool> Whether AppDNA analysis has been run ReservedMachineSid <string> Security identifier of the VM being used to perform the operation

Notes

Only one long-running task for each AppDisk can be processed at a time. In case of failure, the following errors can result.

JobCreationFailed: The requested task could not be started.
DatabaseError: An error occurred in the service while attempting a database operation.
DatabaseNotConfigured: The operation could not be completed because the database for the service is not configured.
ServiceStatusInvalidDb: An error occurred in the service while attempting a database operation. Communication with the database failed for various reasons.
CommunicationError: An error occurred while communicating with the service.
InvalidParameterCombination: Both PurgeJobOnSuccess and RunAsynchronously were specified. When running asynchronously, the cmdlet terminates before the job does, so it cannot clean up the completed job.
PermissionDenied: The user does not have administrative rights to perform this operation.
ConfigurationLoggingError: The operation could not be performed because of a configuration logging error.
ScopeNotFound: One or more of the scopes nominated for the imported AppDisk do not exist.
ExceptionThrown: An unexpected error occurred. To locate more details, see the Windows event logs on the controller being used, or examine the XenDesktop logs.
