Syntax

Default (Default)

New-NfsClientgroup
    [-ClientGroupName] <String>
    [[-AddMember] <String[]>]
    [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]

Description

The New-NfsClientGroup cmdlet creates a Network File System (NFS) client group on a target computer. You can add one or more client computers to the new client group by using the AddMember parameter. You can also add and remove members of the client group by using the Set-NfsClientgroup cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1: Create a client group and add members by using host names

PS C:\> New-NfsClientGroup -ClientGroupName "Contoso-Group1" -AddMember ("joe-desktop", "bill-laptop")
ClientGroupMembers : {joe-desktop,bill-laptop}
ClientGroupName    : Contoso-Group1
PSComputerName     :

This command creates a client group named Contoso-Group1 and adds client computers to the new client group by using the host names of the client computers.

Example 2: Create a client group that has no members

PS C:\> New-NfsClientGroup -Name "Contoso-Group2"
ClientGroupMembers :
ClientGroupName    : Contoso-Group2
PSComputerName     :

This command creates a client group named Contoso-Group2. No members are added to the new client group.

Example 3: Create a client group and add a member by using an IP address

PS C:\> New-NfsClientGroup -Name "Contoso-Group2" -AddMember "10.121.24.132"
ClientGroupMembers : {10.121.24.132}
ClientGroupName    : Contoso-Group2
PSComputerName     :

This command creates a client group named Contoso-Group2 and adds a client computer that has the IP address 10.121.24.132 to the client group.

Parameters

-AddMember

Specifies an array of host names or IP addresses of client computers to add to the new client group.

Parameter properties

Type:

String[]

Default value:None
Supports wildcards:True
DontShow:False
Aliases:add, member

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:1
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:True
Value from remaining arguments:False

-AsJob

Indicates that this cmdlet runs the command as a background job on a remote computer. Use this parameter to run commands that take an extensive time to finish.

When you use the AsJob parameter, the command returns an object that represents the job, and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job finishes. To manage the job, use the Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.

The AsJob parameter resembles using the Invoke-Command cmdlet to run a Start-Job command remotely. However, with AsJob, the job is created on the local computer, even though the job runs on a remote computer, and the results of the remote job are automatically returned to the local computer.

For more information about Windows PowerShell background jobs, see about_Jobs and about_Remote_Jobs.

-ThrottleLimit

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
