  • Reference
Module:
DnsServer

Notifies a DNS server to attempt a search for stale resource records.

Syntax

Start-DnsServerScavenging
     [-ComputerName <String>]
     [-Force]
     [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
     [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]
     [-AsJob]
     [-WhatIf]
     [-Confirm]
     [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Start-DnsServerScavenging cmdlet notifies a Domain Name System (DNS) server to attempt a search for stale resource records. The successful completion of this command triggers an immediate start to a scavenge.

Although this command to start a scavenge appears to complete successfully, the scavenge does not start unless the following preconditions are met:

  • Scavenging is enabled for both the server and the zone.
  • The zone is started.
  • The resource records have a time stamp.

You can use the Verbose parameter to display all the records that the command deletes. You can press Ctrl + C to end a scavenge that is running on a DNS server. If the DNS server cannot run scavenging, the cmdlet displays the reasons why the scavenge did not start.

Examples

Example 1: Start a DNS server scavenge

PS C:\> Start-DnsServerScavenging -Verbose

This command notifies the local DNS server to attempt an immediate search for stale resource records.

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.

-CimSession

Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

-ThrottleLimit

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.

-WhatIf

Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.
