Synopsis

Returns the replication metadata for one or more Active Directory replication partners.

Description

The Get-ADReplicationAttributeMetadata cmdlet returns the replication metadata for one or more attributes on a given object. The metadata is contained in the following two directory objects:
single-value attribute: msDS-ReplAttributeMetaData
multi-value attribute: msDS-ReplValueMetaData

The cmdlet parses the byte array(s) and returns the data in a readable format.

Parameters

-AuthType 
         Specifies the authentication method to use. Possible values for this parameter include:

    Required?                    false
    Position?                    named
    Default value                Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.AuthType.Negotiate
    Accept pipeline input?       false
    Accept wildcard characters?  false

    Accept pipeline input?       false
    Accept wildcard characters?  false

-Filter <String>
    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.

    Position?                    named

    Accept pipeline input?       false
    Accept wildcard characters?  false

-IncludeDeletedObjects <SwitchParameter>
    Specifies to retrieve deleted objects and the deactivated forward and backward links. When this parameter is specified, the cmdlet uses the following LDAP controls:

    Position?                    named
    Default value                
    Accept pipeline input?       false
    Accept wildcard characters?  false

-Object <ADObject>
    Specifies an Active Directory object by providing one of the following property values. The identifier in parentheses is the LDAP display name for the attribute.

    Position?                    1
    Default value                None
    Accept pipeline input?       True (ByValue)
    Accept wildcard characters?  false

-Properties <String[]>
    Specifies a list of one or more attribute names as a comma separated list to return the metadata for replication partners. This parameter also accepts * to indicate that all attributes set on the object should be returned.

    Required?                    false
    Position?                    3
    Default value                * (all properties)
    Accept pipeline input?       false
    Accept wildcard characters?  false

    Default value                False; by default, only the linked value with the highest USN is returned
    Accept pipeline input?       false

Syntax

Notes
The default behavior for this cmdlet is to prompt for object identity. Other tools that have been provided to manage this feature in previous releases of Windows Server include the Repadmin.exe command-line tool.

By including the -ShowAllLinkedValues switch parameter if a multi-valued attribute is present, all its linked values are also retrieved.
