Description

The Get-DtcAdvancedSetting cmdlet gets the advanced setting for Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC). Use this cmdlet to query the advanced setting information stored in the registry. You can query only one registry value at one time. Specify a DTC instance by using the DtcName parameter. If you do not specify an instance, the default value is Local. The default registry location for advanced settings is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSDTC.

Examples

Example 1: Query an advanced setting

PS C:\> Get-DtcAdvancedSetting -Name "AccountName" -DtcName "Local" -Subkey "Security" 

NT AUTHORITY\NetworkService

This command gets the account name used by the local MSDTC instance.

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.

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

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet.

The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
