Get-Hypconnectionregion

Enumerates the regions of a hypervisor connection that are based on cloud technology.

Syntax

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

Detailed Description

Use this command to enumerate the available regions within a public or private cloud, when making hypervisor connections to cloud services. Sometimes, regions need to be selected and applied before the cloud connection can be used in a meaningful way. This cmdlet allows the supported regions to be listed so that one may be selected.

Once a region has been chosen, use the standard Set-Item provider cmdlet to select it. See the examples for further details.

This cmdlet may return no output, in which case the cloud connection can be considered “regionless” (or, implicitly, all within a single region). In such cases, there is no need to select a region, and the hypervisor connection can be used as is.

Parameters

Name Description Required? Pipeline Input Default Value
LiteralPath Specifies the path to the hypervisor connection whose regions are being examined. This cmdlet is valid only for hypervisor connections that have the UsesCloudInfrastructure flag set to true. The path must be in one of the following formats: <drive>:\Connections\<ConnectionName> or <drive>:\Connections\{<Connection Uid>} true true (ByValue)  
BearerToken Specifies the bearer token assigned to the calling user false false  
AdminAddress Specifies the address of a XenDesktop controller to which the PowerShell snap-in connects. You can provide a host name or an IP address. false false LocalHost. When a value is provided by any cmdlet, this value becomes the default.

Input Type

System.String
You Can Pipe A String That Contains A Path To Get-Hypconnectionregion (Literalpath Parameter).

Return Values

Citrix.Host.Sdk.Hypervisorregion

Get-HypConnectionRegion returns zero or more instances of the HypervisorConnectionRegion object, each of which contain the following properties:
Name <string> Specifies the unique name of the region. Endpoint <string> Specifies the URL endpoint that is specific to the region, if relevant. This may be an empty string, and is returned only for information purposes.
A full list of the hypervisor networks that are exposed for use in the hosting unit.
