<CommonParameters>

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Verbose, -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -OutBuffer, and -OutVariable. For more information, see    about_CommonParameters (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=113216).

Inputs

The input type is the type of the objects that you can pipe to the cmdlet.

Outputs

The output type is the type of the objects that the cmdlet emits.

• CloudCapabilityProfile

Examples

Example 1: Create a capability profile that is compatible with Hyper-V hosts

The first command creates a capability profile object named CapabilityProf01 that is compatible with Hyper-V hosts, and then stores the object in the $CapabilityProfile variable.

The second command displays information about the capability profile stored in $CapabilityProfile.

PS C:\> $CapabilityProfile = New-SCCapabilityProfile -Name "CapabilityProf01" -FabricCapabilityType "HyperV"
PS C:\> $CapabilityProfile
