Get-ADReplicationQueueOperation
Synopsis
Description
The Get-ADReplicationQueueOperation cmdlet can be called from script to watch and observe when operations get moved out of the queue as they are replicated. It also allows for filtering on any of the properties on the ADReplicationOperation object.
The replication queue operates in the following manner: suppose a domain controller has five inbound replication connections. As the domain controller formulates change requests, either by a schedule being reached or from a notification, it adds a work item for each request to the end of the queue of pending synchronization requests. Each pending synchronization request represents one pair, such as “synchronize the schema directory partition from DC1,” or “delete the ApplicationX directory partition.”
When a work item has been received into the queue, notification and polling intervals do not apply. Instead, the domain controller processes the item (begins synchronizing from its source) as soon as the work item reaches the front of the replication queue. This process continues until either the destination is fully synchronized with the source domain controller, an error occurs, or the synchronization is pre-empted by a higher-priority operation.
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
-Credential <PSCredential>
Specifies a user account that has permission to perform this action. The default is the current user.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
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.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Partition <String[]>
Specifies the distinguished name of an Active Directory partition. The distinguished name must be one of the naming contexts on the current directory server. The cmdlet searches this partition to find the object defined by the Identity parameter.
Required? false
Position? 3
Default value DefaultNC; Provider: Default is to use the Partition that you are currently in. Else, use DefaultNC (IE: If you are in the RootDSE)
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Server <String>
Specifies the Active Directory Domain Services 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, Active Directory Domain Services or Active Directory Snapshot instance.
Required? true
Position? 2
Default value
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? falseSyntax
