------------------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. Then the value of the server option called MirrorChunkSize is returned from the server. The connections for the server object are then closed.

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

Get-DtOption -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectAlpha -Name MirrorChunkSize

Disconnect-DtServer -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectAlpha
