Parameters

Parameter Required Type Description

OnPremisesCredentials

Required

System.Management.Automation.PSCredential

The OnPremisesCredentials parameter specifies the on-premises Active Directory account and credentials that will be used to configure hybrid configuration features. This account must have the Organization Management management role group assigned.

TenantCredentials

Required

System.Management.Automation.PSCredential

The TenantCredentials parameter identifies the Office 365 for enterprises tenant organization account and credentials that will be used to configure hybrid configuration features. This is often the administrator account assigned when the Office 365 tenant was created. This account must have the Organization Management management role group assigned.

Confirm

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

The Confirm switch causes the command to pause processing and requires you to acknowledge what the command will do before processing continues. You don't have to specify a value with the Confirm switch.

DomainController

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Fqdn

The DomainController parameter specifies the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the domain controller that writes this configuration change to Active Directory.

ForceUpgrade

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

The ForceUpgrade parameter suppresses the prompt to confirm an upgrade of the HybridConfiguration Active Directory object. This confirmation prompt is only displayed when using the Update-HybridConfiguration cmdlet on a server running Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 and when the existing HybridConfiguration Active Directory object version is Exchange 2010.

WhatIf

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

The WhatIf switch instructs the command to simulate the actions that it would take on the object. By using the WhatIf switch, you can view what changes would occur without having to apply any of those changes. You don't have to specify a value with the WhatIf switch.
