[<CommonParameters>] Description
The New-SmbMultichannelConstraint cmdlet creates a Server Message Block (SMB) multi-channel constraint for the specified server. This constraint applies to the Default instance of SMB used for normal sharing. It does not apply to SMB-using application instances like Storage Replica, Storage Spaces Direct SBL, or CSV.
Examples
Example 1: Create an SMB multi-channel constraint for an SMB server
PS C:\>New-SmbMultichannelConstraint -ServerName "Contoso-SO" -InterfaceAlias "RDMA1", "RDMA2"

Parameters
-AsJob
Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
| Type: | SwitchParameter |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-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.
| Type: | CimSession[] |
| Aliases: | Session |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-Confirm
Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.
| Type: | SwitchParameter |
| Aliases: | cf |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | False |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-Force
Forces the command to run without asking for user confirmation.
| Type: | SwitchParameter |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-InterfaceAlias
Specifies the interface aliases of the network interfaces that is used to connect to the server.
| Type: | String[] |
| Position: | 2 |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | True |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-InterfaceIndex
Specifies the interface indexes of the network interfaces that are used to connect to the server.
| Type: | UInt32[] |
| Position: | 2 |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | True |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-ServerName
Specifies, when the SMB client is connecting to this server, that the constraints determine which network interfaces are used.
| Type: | String |
| Position: | 1 |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | True |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-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.
| Type: | Int32 |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-WhatIf
Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.
| Type: | SwitchParameter |
| Aliases: | wi |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | False |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
Inputs
None
Outputs
This cmdlet returns a MSFT_SmbMultiChannelConnection object that represents the SMB multi-channel constraints for the server against which one or more constraints are created.
