[<CommonParameters>] Description
The Add-BCDataCacheExtension cmdlet adds a data cache file to increase the amount of cache storage space that is available on a hosted cache server. Data cache files can be spread across multiple disks to maximize performance.
Examples
Example 1: Create a default cache extension
PS C:\> Add-BCDataCacheExtensionThis command creates a data cache extension in the default location reserving five percent of the drive.
Example 2: Create a cache extension
PS C:\> Add-BCDataCacheExtension -Path "C:\datacache" -Percentage 10This command adds a data cache extension in the C:\datacache directory reserving ten percent of C:.
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.
