Get-RmsChildCert

Returns all child certificates from a parent certificate used in a user request for the Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) cluster.

Syntax

Get-RmsChildCert [-StartTime <DateTime>] [-EndTime <DateTime>] -ParentCertId <String> -ParentCertType <String> [-Path] <String[]> [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

This cmdlet returns all issuance licenses from a parent client licensor certificate (CLC) or all end-user licenses (EULs) from a parent issuance license used in a user request on the Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) cluster.

To obtain licenses, specify the ParentCertID and ParentCertType of the parent certificate for which you want to retrieve child certificates and then set the Path parameter to the AD RMS provider drive subpath “<PSDrive>:\Report” where <PSDrive> is the provider drive ID. You can also specify a relative path. For example, “.” specifies the current location.

Use the Get-RmsCertChain cmdlet to obtain the ParentCertID and the ParentCertType of the certificate for which you to retrieve child certificates. The ParentCertID value returned is valid only for the cluster identified by the Path parameter of Get-RmsCertChain. You cannot use a ParentCertID to identify the same certificate in different clusters.

Parameters

-StartTime <DateTime>

Specifies the beginning of a time period. This parameter specifies a time value.

The following examples show commonly-used syntax to specify a time. Time is assumed to be local time unless otherwise specified. When a time value is not specified, the time is assumed to 12:00:00 AM local time. When a date is not specified, the date is assumed to be the current date.
- “4/17/2006”
- “Monday, April 17, 2006”
- “2:22:45 PM”
- “Monday, April 17, 2006 2:22:45 PM”

These examples specify the same date and the time without the seconds.
- "4/17/2006 2:22 PM”
- "Monday, April 17, 2006 2:22 PM"
- "2:22 PM”

The following example shows how to specify a date and time by using the RFC1123 standard. This example defines time by using Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
-"Mon, 17 Apr 2006 21:22:48 GMT”

The following example shows how to specify a round-trip value as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). This example represents Monday, April 17, 2006 at 2:22:48 PM UTC.
-"2000-04-17T14:22:48.0000000"

Notes

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

C:\PS>Get-RmsChildCert -Path . -parentCertId 8AGI9GoWuobJDsTmr/CUHTCEpsI= -ParentCertType CLC

This command returns all child certificates from a parent client licensor certificate.

EXAMPLE 2

C:\PS>$parentCert = Get-RmsCertChain -Path . -RequestID 3 | Where {$_.CertificateType -eq 'Client-Licensor-Certificate'}

Get-RmsChildCert -Path . -ParentCertId $parentCert.CertificateID -ParentCertType $parentCert.CertificateType

This command stores a certificate obtained from the Get-RmsCertChain cmdlet in a variable and then uses that variable to pass the certificate ID and type to the Get-RmsChildCert cmdlet to return child certificates.
