Description

The Set-BrokerMachineConfigurationMetadata cmdlet creates/updates metadata key-value
pairs for MachineConfiguration. The MachineConfiguration can be specified by InputObject or piping.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

This command creates/updates the Metadata "MyMetadataName" key-value pair for the MachineConfiguration whose instance is pointed by \$obj-Uid
Set-BrokerMachineConfigurationMetadata -InputObject $obj-Uid -Name "MyMetadataName" -Value "1234"

EXAMPLE 2

This command creates/updates metadata key "MyMetadataName" with the value "1234" for all the MachineConfiguration in the site
Get-BrokerMachineConfiguration | Set-BrokerMachineConfigurationMetadata -Name "MyMetadataName" -Value "1234"

EXAMPLE 3

This command creates/updates two metadata keys "name1" and "name2" with the values "value1" and "value2" respectively for the MachineConfiguration in the site whose name is 'objname'
@{ 'name1' = 'value1'; 'name2' = 'value2' } | Set-BrokerMachineConfigurationMetadata 'objname'

-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.

Required: False
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

CitrixCommonParameters

CommonParameters

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -InformationAction, -InformationVariable, -OutVariable, -OutBuffer, -PipelineVariable, -Verbose, -WarningAction, and -WarningVariable. For more information, see about_CommonParameters.

Inputs

Citrix.Broker.Admin.SDK.BrokerMachineConfiguration

You can pipe the MachineConfiguration to hold the new or updated metadata.
