Description
The Get-DnsServerDirectoryPartition cmdlet gets one or more Domain Name System (DNS) application server directory partitions on a DNS server.
Examples
Example 1: Get all DNS application directory partitions
PS C:\> Get-DnsServerDirectoryPartition
server.DirectoryPartitionName State Flags ZoneCount
----------------------------- ----- ----- ---------
DomainDnsZones.mytest.cont... 0(DNS_DP_OKAY) Enlisted Auto Domain 3
ForestDnsZones.mytest.cont... 0(DNS_DP_OKAY) Enlisted Auto Forest 2
This command gets all the DNS application directory partitions on the local computer.
Example 2: Get all custom application directory partitions
PS C:\> Get-DnsServerDirectoryPartition -Custom
DirectoryPartitionName State Flags ZoneCount
---------------------- ----- ----- ---------
DomainDnsZones.mytest.cont... 0(DNS_DP_OKAY) Enlisted Auto Domain 3
This command gets all the custom application directory partitions on the local computer.
Example 3: Get an application directory partition by using name
PS C:\> Get-DnsServerDirectoryPartition -Name "DomainDnsZones.dept.contoso.com"
This command gets the DNS application directory partition named DomainDnsZones.dept.contoso.com on the local computer.
Parameters
-AsJob
Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt.
You can continue to work in the session while the job completes.
To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets.
To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.
For more information about Windows PowerShell background jobs, see about_Jobs.
