Description

The Set-ADComputer cmdlet modifies the properties of an Active Directory computer object. You can modify commonly used property values by using the cmdlet parameters. Property values that are not associated with cmdlet parameters can be modified by using the Add, Replace, Clear, and Remove parameters.

The Identity parameter specifies the Active Directory computer to modify. You can identify a computer by its distinguished name, GUID, security identifier (SID) or Security Accounts Manager (SAM) account name. You can also set the Identity parameter to an object variable such as $<localComputerobject>, or you can pass an object through the pipeline to the Identity parameter. For example, you can use the Get-ADComputer cmdlet to retrieve a computer object and then pass the object through the pipeline to Set-ADComputer.

The Instance parameter provides a way to update a computer by applying the changes made to a copy of the computer object. When you set the Instance parameter to a copy of an Active Directory computer object that has been modified, the Set-ADComputer cmdlet makes the same changes to the original computer object. To get a copy of the object to modify, use the Get-ADComputer object. When you specify the Instance parameter you should not pass the Identity parameter. For more information about the Instance parameter, see the Instance parameter description.

Examples

Example 1: Modify the SPN value for a specified Active Directory computer

PS C:\> Set-ADComputer -Identity "USER01-SRV1" -ServicePrincipalName @{Replace="MSSQLSVC/USER01-SRV1.USER01.COM:1456","MSOLAPSVC.3/USER01-SRV1.USER01.COM:analyze"}

This command modifies the service principal name (SPN) value for the computer specified by the Identity parameter.

Example 2: Set the location for a specified Active Directory computer

PS C:\> Set-ADComputer -Identity "USER02-SRV1" -Location "NA/HQ/Building A"

This command sets the location for the computer specified by the Identity parameter.

Example 3: Set an attribute for a specified Active Directory computer using a SAM account name

PS C:\> Set-ADComputer -Identity "USER03-SRV1" -ManagedBy "CN=SQL Administrator 01,OU=UserAccounts,OU=Managed,DC=USER03,DC=COM"

This command sets the ManagedBy attribute value for the computer specified by the Identity parameter using the SAM account name of the user.

Example 4: Set multiple attributes of an Active Directory computer

PS C:\> $Comp = Get-ADComputer -Identity "USER04-SRV1"
PS C:\> $Comp.Location = "NA/HQ/Building A"
PS C:\> $Comp.ManagedBy = "CN=SQL Administrator 01,OU=UserAccounts,OU=Managed,DC=USER04,DC=COM"
PS C:\> Set-ADComputer -Instance $Comp

This command sets the Location and ManagedBy attributes of a computer.

Warning: Domain-joined Windows systems and services such as clustering manage their own msDS-SupportedEncryptionTypes attribute. Therefore any changes to the flag on the msDS-SupportedEncryptionTypes attribute is overwritten by the service or system which manages the setting.

The default credentials are the credentials of the currently logged on user unless the cmdlet is run from an Active Directory module for Windows PowerShell provider drive. If the cmdlet is run from such a provider drive, the account associated with the drive is the default.

To specify this parameter, you can type a user name, such as User1 or Domain01\User01 or you can specify a PSCredential object. If you specify a user name for this parameter, the cmdlet prompts for a password.

You can also create a PSCredential object by using a script or by using the Get-Credential cmdlet. You can then set the Credential parameter to the PSCredential object.

If the acting credentials do not have directory-level permission to perform the task, Active Directory module for Windows PowerShell returns a terminating error.

  • A Security Accounts Manager Account Name (sAMAccountName)

The cmdlet searches the default naming context or partition to find the object. If the identifier given is a distinguished name, the partition to search is computed from that distinguished name. If two or more objects are found, the cmdlet returns a non-terminating error.

This parameter can also get this object through the pipeline or you can set this parameter to a computer object instance.

Type:ADComputer

The cmdlet only updates the object properties that have changed.

The Instance parameter can only update computer objects that have been retrieved by using the Get-ADComputer cmdlet. When you specify the Instance parameter, you cannot specify other parameters that set properties on the object.

Type:ADComputer
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-KerberosEncryptionType

Specifies whether an account supports Kerberos encryption types which are used during creation of service tickets. This value sets the encryption types supported flags of the Active Directory msDS-SupportedEncryptionTypes attribute. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • None
  • DES
  • RC4
  • AES128
  • AES256

None will remove all encryption types from the account which may result in the Key Distribution Center (KDC) being unable to issue service tickets for services using the account.

Data Encryption Standard (DES) is a weak encryption type which is not supported by default since Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.

Warning: Domain-joined Windows systems and services such as clustering manage their own msDS-SupportedEncryptionTypes attribute. Therefore any changes to the flag on the msDS-SupportedEncryptionTypes attribute is overwritten by the service or system which manages the setting.

Position:Named
Default value:None

-Partition

Specifies the distinguished name of an Active Directory partition. The distinguished name must be one of the naming contexts on the current directory server. The cmdlet searches this partition to find the object defined by the Identity parameter.

In many cases, a default value is used for the Partition parameter if no value is specified. The rules for determining the default value are given below. Note that rules listed first are evaluated first and once a default value can be determined, no further rules are evaluated.

In Active Directory Domain Services environments, a default value for Partition is set in the following cases:

  • If the Identity parameter is set to a distinguished name, the default value of Partition is automatically generated from this distinguished name.
  • If running cmdlets from an Active Directory provider drive, the default value of Partition is automatically generated from the current path in the drive.
  • If none of the previous cases apply, the default value of Partition is set to the default partition or naming context of the target domain.

In Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) environments, a default value for Partition is set in the following cases:

  • If the Identity parameter is set to a distinguished name, the default value of Partition is automatically generated from this distinguished name.
  • If running cmdlets from an Active Directory provider drive, the default value of Partition is automatically generated from the current path in the drive.
  • If the target AD LDS instance has a default naming context, the default value of Partition is set to the default naming context. To specify a default naming context for an AD LDS environment, set the msDS-defaultNamingContext property of the Active Directory directory service agent (DSA) object (nTDSDSA) for the AD LDS instance.
  • If none of the previous cases apply, the Partition parameter will not take any default value.

To remove values:

-ServicePrincipalNames @{Remove=value3,value4,...}

To replace values:

-ServicePrincipalNames @{Replace=value1,value2,...}

To clear all values:

Type:Boolean
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False

Specifies a user principal name (UPN) in the format <user>@<DNS-domain-name>. A user principal name (UPN) is a friendly name assigned by an administrator that is shorter than the LDAP distinguished name used by the system and easier to remember. The UPN is independent of the user object's distinguished name, so a user object can be moved or renamed without affecting the user logon name. When logging on using a UPN, users no longer have to choose a domain from a list on the logon dialog box.
