Sets a network controller cluster.

Syntax

Set-NetworkControllerCluster
   [-ManagementSecurityGroup <String>]
   [-CredentialEncryptionCertificate <X509Certificate2>]
   [-EnableAutomaticUpdates <Boolean>]
   [-PassThru]
   [-Force]
   [-UseSubjectNameForNodeCert <Boolean>]

Description

The Set-NetworkControllerCluster cmdlet sets a network controller cluster. After a cluster is deployed, you can use this cmdlet to set the management security group (if Kerberos authentication is used), and the certificate to encrypt the credentials stored on disk. Cluster authentication, once set, cannot be changed for the deployment.

Examples

Example 1: Change the management security group for cluster authentication

PS C:\> Set-NetworkControllerCluster -ManagementSecurityGroup "Contoso\NCUsers" -PassThru
Version                        : 10.0.0
Node                           : {Node1, Node2, Node3}
ClusterAuthentication          : Kerberos
ManagementSecurityGroup        : Contoso\NCUsers
CredentialEncryptionCertificate: [Subject]
                                   CN=NCEncryption
                                 [Issuer]
                                   CN=Contoso
                                 [Serial Number]
                                   1C00000003786A607D6EFB733F000000000003
                                 [Not Before]
                                   2/11/2015 6:18:21 AM

                                 [Not After]
                                   2/10/2017 6:18:21 AM

                                 [Thumbprint]
                                   D4FDE4F607849083C590466334D66037C0E38001

This command changes the management security group for cluster authentication to Contoso\NCUsers.
