Description

The Debug-FileShare cmdlet finds problems with a file share and recommends solutions.

Examples

Example 1: Debug a file share by using the pipeline

PS C:\>Get-FileShare | Debug-FileShare
EventTime                 :
FaultId                   : 0ef62dbe-657a-483e-a248-7c5c1dc82477
FaultingObject            :
FaultingObjectDescription : Storage appliance server '{ac906082-8b7e-44fc-b9e5-7bd8aa749958}:SN:GalenB-VM6'.
FaultingObjectLocation    :
FaultType                 : ServerDownFault
PerceivedSeverity         : Minor
Reason                    : The server cannot be reached.
RecommendedActions        : {Start or replace storage server.}
PSComputerName            :

This command gets any faults and remediation actions associated with all file shares local to the Windows PowerShell session.

Example 2: Debug a file share by name

PS C:\>Debug-FileShare -Name "ContosoShare"
EventTime                 :
FaultId                   : 0ef62dbe-657a-483e-a248-7c5c1dc82477
FaultingObject            :
FaultingObjectDescription : Storage appliance server '{ac906082-8b7e-44fc-b9e5-7bd8aa749958}:SN:GalenB-VM6'.
FaultingObjectLocation    :
FaultType                 : ServerDownFault
PerceivedSeverity         : Minor
Reason                    : The server cannot be reached.
RecommendedActions        : {Start or replace storage server.}
PSComputerName            :

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

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.

Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-InputObject

Specifies the input object that is used in a pipeline command.

Type:CimInstance

-ThrottleLimit

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet.

The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
