Moves the RMS Emulator role to a management server.

Syntax

Set-SCOMRMSEmulator
   [-Server] <ManagementServer>

   [-ComputerName <String[]>]
   [-Credential <PSCredential>]
   [-WhatIf]

   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Set-SCOMRMSEmulator cmdlet creates the root management server (RMS) Emulator role on the specified management server or moves it to this server if the role already exists in the management group.

The RMS Emulator role gives legacy management packs that depend on an RMS the ability to continue working in System Center 2016 - Operations Manager, which does not support RMS.

Examples

Example 1: Create the RMS Emulator role on a management server

PS C:\>Get-SCOMManagementServer -Name "Server01.Contoso.com" | Set-SCOMRMSEmulator

This command creates the RMS Emulator role on the management server named Server01.Contoso.com. The command uses the Get-SCOMManagementServer cmdlet to get the specified management server object and passes the object to the Set-SCOMRMSEmulator cmdlet.

Parameters

-ComputerName

Specifies an array of names of computers. The cmdlet establishes temporary connections with management groups for these computers. You can use NetBIOS names, IP addresses, or fully qualified domain names (FQDNs). To specify the local computer, type the computer name, localhost, or a dot (.).

The System Center Data Access service must be started on the computer. If you do not specify a computer, the cmdlet uses the computer for the current management group connection.

-Credential

Specifies the user account under which the management group connection runs. Specify a PSCredential object, such as one that the Get-Credential cmdlet returns, for this parameter. For more information about credential objects, type Get-Help Get-Credential.

If you specify a computer in the ComputerName parameter, use an account that has access to that computer. The default is the current user.

Type:PSCredential
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False

-SCSession

Specifies an array of Connection objects. To get Connection objects, use the Get-SCOMManagementGroupConnection cmdlet.

If this parameter is not specified, the cmdlet uses the active persistent connection to a management group. Use the SCSession parameter to specify a different persistent connection. You can create a temporary connection to a management group by using the ComputerName and Credential parameters. For more information, type Get-Help about_OpsMgr_Connections.

Type:Connection[]
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
