Examples

------------------EXAMPLE------------------

A server object is created for the server alpha using the domain\administrator and password credentials. It assigns the server object to the variable called DtServerObjectAlpha. The script then creates a workload on the server for a full sever job, returning a global unique ID for the workload, and assigns that ID to the variable DtWorkloadGuid. The workload definition for the workload type and the server is then stored in the DtWorkload variable. A server object is created for the server beta using the domain\administrator and password credentials. It assigns the server object to the variable called DtServerObjectBeta. User credentials are stored in a variable called $DtCredential. The script will prompt you to supply the username and password and the credentials will be encrypted. The DNS options for the two servers are then retrieved. The connections for the server object are then closed.

$DtServerObjectAlpha= New-DtServer -Name alpha -UserName domain\administrator -Password password

$DtWorkloadGuid = New-DtWorkload -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectAlpha-WorkloadTypeName FullServerFailover

$DtWorkload = Get-DtWorkload -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectAlpha -WorkloadId $DtWorkloadGuid

$DtServerObjectBeta = New-DtServer -Name beta -UserName domain\administrator -Password password

$DtCredentialEncrypted = Get-Credential

Get-DtDnsOptions -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectBeta -Source $DtServerObjectAlpha -JobType FullServerFailover -Workload $DtWorkload -DnsCredentials $DtCredentialEncrypted

Disconnect-DtServer -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectAlpha
