Description

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this topic lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1

Set-EdgeSyncServiceConfig "Primary EdgeSync Settings" -LogEnabled $true -LogLevel Medium -LogPath "\\Server01\EdgeSyncLog" -LogMaxFileSize 5MB -LogMaxAge 3

This example configures the Microsoft Exchange EdgeSync service settings named Primary EdgeSync Settings with the following values:

EdgeSync logging is enabled and set to the medium detail level.

The log files are stored in the EdgeSyncLog share on the server named Server01.

The maximum individual log file size is 5 megabytes (MB).

The log files are kept for 3 days.

Parameters

-ConfigurationSyncInterval

The ConfigurationSyncInterval parameter specifies how frequently the Microsoft Exchange EdgeSync service synchronizes configuration data. The default value is 3 minutes.

To specify a value, enter it as a time span: dd.hh:mm:ss where dd = days, hh = hours, mm = minutes, and ss = seconds.

Type:EnhancedTimeSpan
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Exchange Server 2010, Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019

-Confirm

The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.

  • Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax: -Confirm:$false.
  • Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.
