Description

The Get-ADReplicationFailure cmdlet returns all failures currently associated with a given domain controller or Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) instance. The return object is of type ADReplicationFailure . This cmdlet returns the list of failures in the ADReplicationSummary object for a specific server.

Examples

Example 1: Get replication failure data for a domain controller 

PS C:\> Get-ADReplicationFailure -Target corp-DC01

This command gets a collection of data that describes an Active Directory replication failure for corp-DC01.

Example 2: Get replication failure data for a server 

PS C:\> Get-ADReplicationFailure -Target corp-DC01 -Scope Server

This command gets a collection of data that describes an Active Directory replication failure from corp-DC01.

Example 3: Get replication failure data for multiple domain controllers 

PS C:\> Get-ADReplicationFailure -Target corp-DC01,corp-DC02

This command gets a collection of data describing an Active Directory replication failure from corp-DC01 and corp-DC02.

Example 4: Get replication failure data for a site 

PS C:\> Get-ADReplicationFailure -Target NorthAmerica -Scope Site

This command gets a collection of data describing Active Directory replication failures from all the domain controllers in the site NorthAmerica.

Example 5: Get replication failure data for all domain controllers in a domain 

PS C:\> Get-ADReplicationFailure -Target "corp.contoso.com" -Scope Domain

This command gets a collection of data describing Active Directory replication failures from all the domain controllers in the domain corp.contoso.com.

Example 6: Get replication failure data for all domain controllers in a forest 

PS C:\> Get-ADReplicationFailure -Target "corp.contoso.com" -Scope Forest

This command gets a collection of data describing Active Directory replication failures from all the domain controllers in the forest corp.contoso.com.

Required Parameters

-Scope

Specifies the type of object used as input by the Target parameter. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • Server
  • Site
  • Domain
  • Forest
Type: ADScopeType
Aliases: ReplicationSite
Parameter Sets: Server, Domain, Forest, Site
Position: 1
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
-Target

Specifies either one or more (using a comma separated list) of Active Directory domain controllers, sites, domains, or forests. It returns results for all the domain controllers that are specified or that are part of the specified container.

Type: Object[]
Aliases: Name, HostName, Site, Domain, Forest
Position: 0
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters: False

Optional Parameters

-AuthType

Specifies the authentication method to use. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • Negotiate or 0
  • Basic or 1

The default authentication method is Negotiate.

A Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) connection is required for the Basic authentication method.

Type: ADAuthType
Parameter Sets: Negotiate, Basic
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
-Credential

Specifies a user account that has permission to perform this action. The default is the current user.

Type a user name, such as User01 or Domain01\User01, or enter a PSCredential object, such as one generated by the Get-Credential cmdlet. If you type a user name, you will be prompted for a password.

This parameter is not supported by any providers installed with Windows PowerShell.

Type: PSCredential
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
-EnumeratingServer

Specifies the Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) instance to connect to, by providing one of the following values for a corresponding domain name or directory server. The service may be any of the following: Active Directory Lightweight Domain Services (AD LDS), AD DS, or Active Directory snapshot instance.

Specify the instance in one of the following ways:

Domain name values:

  • Fully qualified domain name
  • NetBIOS name

Directory server values:

  • Fully qualified directory server name
  • NetBIOS name
  • Fully qualified directory server name and port

The default value for this parameter is determined by one of the following methods in the order that they are listed:

  • By using the Server value from objects passed through the pipeline
  • By using the server information associated with the AD DS Windows PowerShell provider drive, when the cmdlet runs in that drive
  • By using the domain of the computer running Windows PowerShell
Type: String
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
-Filter

Specifies a filter in the provider's format or language. The value of this parameter qualifies the Path parameter. The syntax of the filter, including the use of wildcards, depends on the provider. Filters are more efficient than other parameters, because the provider applies them when retrieving the objects, rather than having Windows PowerShell filter the objects after they are retrieved.

Type: String
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

Inputs

Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADDirectoryServer
