Exchange Demos with PowerShell - Finding Things

Continuing on from the previous post, in the third part of the demo I talk about using help and "finding things" in PowerShell. as well as introducing the concept of Exchange identity and filters (both traditional PowerShell client-side and Exchange's own server-side filters):

[PS] C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Scripts\TR4>get-help suspend-queue

NAME
Suspend-Queue
SYNOPSIS
Use the Suspend-Queue cmdlet to stop outbound activities for a queue on a c
omputer that has the Hub Transport server role or the Edge Transport server
role installed.
SYNTAX
Suspend-Queue -Identity <QueueIdentity> [<CommonParameters>]
Suspend-Queue -Filter <String> [-Server <ServerIdParameter>] [<CommonParame
ters>]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The Suspend-Queue cmdlet stops outbound activities on a queue that has a st
atus of Active or Retry. Messages that are in delivery through SMTP-send wi
ll finish operations. No additional messages will leave the queue. If you s
pecify an Identity parameter, the queue will be suspended if the identity m
atches only a single queue. If the identity matches more than one queue, yo
u will receive an error. To suspend more than one queue in a single operati
on, you must use a filter.
You must use an Identity parameter or a Filter parameter. The Identity and
Filter parameter sets are mutually exclusive. You can suspend a queue on a
remote server by including the server name as part of the Identity paramete
r or by using the Server parameter with a filter query. If you do not speci
fy a server, the command runs against only the local server.
To run the Suspend-Queue cmdlet on a computer that has the Hub Transport se
rver role installed, you must log on by using a domain account that has the
permissions assigned to the Exchange Server Administrators group. The acco
unt must also be a member of the local Administrators group on that compute
r.
To run the Suspend-Queue cmdlet on a computer that has the Edge Transport s
erver role installed, you must log on by using an account that is a member
of the local Administrators group on that computer.

[PS] C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Scripts\TR4>resume-queue -?

NAME
Resume-Queue
SYNOPSIS
Use the Resume-Queue cmdlet to restart outbound activities for a suspended
queue on a computer that has the Hub Transport server role or the Edge Tran
sport server role installed.
SYNTAX
Resume-Queue -Identity <QueueIdentity> [<CommonParameters>]
Resume-Queue -Filter <String> [-Server <ServerIdParameter>] [<CommonParamet
ers>]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The Resume-Queue cmdlet restarts outbound activities on a queue that has a
status of Suspended. If you specify an Identity parameter, the queue will b
e resumed if that identity matches only a single queue. If the identity mat
ches more than one queue, you will receive an error. To resume more than on
e queue in a single operation, you must use a filter. You must use an Ident
ity parameter or a Filter parameter. The Identity parameter and Filter para
meter sets are mutually exclusive. You can resume a queue on a remote serve
r by including the server name as part of the Identity parameter, or by usi
ng the Server parameter with a filter query. If you do not specify a server
, the command is run against only the local server.
To run the Resume-Queue cmdlet on a computer that has the Hub Transport ser
ver role installed, you must log on by using a domain account that has the
permissions assigned to the Exchange Server Administrators group. The accou
nt must also be a member of the local Administrators group on that computer
.
To run the Resume-Queue cmdlet on a computer that has the Edge Transport se
rver role installed, you must log on by using an account that is a member o
f the local Administrators group on that computer.
