contoso_NorthAmerica contoso_NorthAmerica.dnsThis command removes the zone scope named contoso_NorthAmerica from the zone named contoso.com.
Example 2: Remove all zone scopes
PS C:\> Get-DnsServerZoneScope -ZoneName "contoso.com" | Remove-DnsServerZoneScope -Force -PassThru
ZoneScope FileName
--------- --------
contoso_NorthAmerica contoso_NorthAmerica.dnsThis command gets all the scopes for a zone by using the Get-DnsServerZoneScope cmdlet. The command passes the zone scopes to the current cmdlet by using the pipeline operator. The current cmdlet delets each of the zone scopes.
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.
