Description

The Set-AdminScope command allows the description of scopes and the tenant name to be updated. You cannot modify the built-in 'All' scope.
To change the contents of a scope, use the Add-\&lt;Noun\>Scope and Remove-\&lt;Noun\>Scope cmdlets from the corresponding PowerShell snap-in.
To update the metadata associated with a scope, use the Set-AdminScopeMetadata and Remove-AdminScopeMetadata cmdlets.
