Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Domain |
Optional |
String |
Fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the domain where domain preparation should be rolled back (for example, -Domain asia.litwareinc.com). If this parameter is not included, rollback will take place on the local domain. |
|
DomainController |
Optional |
String |
Enables administrators to specify the FQDN of the domain controller to be used when running Disable-CsAdDomain. If not specified, the cmdlet will use the first available domain controller. |
|
GlobalCatalog |
Optional |
String |
FQDN of a global catalog server in your domain. This parameter is not required if you are running Disable-CsAdDomain on a computer with an account in your domain. |
|
GlobalSettingsDomainController |
Optional |
String |
FQDN of a domain controller where global settings are stored. If global settings are stored in the System container in Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) this parameter must point to the root domain controller. If global settings are stored in the Configuration container, then any domain controller can be used and this parameter can be omitted. |
|
Force |
Optional |
Switch Parameter |
If present rollback will occur even if Disable-CsAdDomain determines that at least one Front End, conferencing, or Web Services server is still active in the domain. If not present then the command will fail if a Front End, Conferencing, or Web Services server is still active in the domain. |
|
Report |
Optional |
String |
Enables you to specify a file path for the log file created when the cmdlet runs. For example: -Report "C:\Logs\DisableDomain.html" |
|
WhatIf |
Optional |
Switch Parameter |
Describes what would happen if you executed the command without actually executing the command. |
|
Confirm |
Optional |
Switch Parameter |
Prompts you for confirmation before executing the command. |
Detailed Description
When you install Lync Server 2010 in a domain, that domain must be correctly prepared, a process that includes extending the Active Directory schema to allow for the addition of attributes specific to Lync Server as well as assigning the required Access Control Entries to the universal groups needed for managing and operating Lync Server. If you later decide to uninstall Lync Server (or if you encounter problems during the setup process), you might need to roll back these domain-level changes. The Disable-CsAdDomain cmdlet provides a way for you to undo all the domain-level modifications made by the Enable-CsAdDomain cmdlet.
Note that the tasks carried out by Disable-CsAdDomain are similar to the tasks carried out by the following Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2 command:
Lcscmd.exe /domain /action:DomainUnprep
Who can run this cmdlet: You must be a domain administrator in order to run the Disable-CsAdDomain cmdlet locally.
Input Types
None. Disable-CsAdDomain does not accept pipelined input.
Return Types
None.
Example
-------------------------- Example 1 ------------------------
 Copy Code |
|
|---|---|
Disable-CsAdDomain |
|
The preceding command rolls back the domain preparation process in the local domain. Because the Force parameter is not included, the command will fail if Disable-CsAdDomain determines that at least one Front End Server, A/V Conferencing Server, or Web Services server is still active in the domain.
-------------------------- Example 2 ------------------------
| Copy Code |
|
|---|---|
Disable-CsAdDomain -Domain asia.litwareinc.com |
|
The preceding command rolls back the domain preparation process for the domain asia.litwareinc.com.
-------------------------- Example 3 ------------------------
| Copy Code |
|
|---|---|
Disable-CsAdDomain -Force |
|
The command shown in Example 3 uses the Force parameter to force the rollback of the domain preparation process in the local domain. This means that rollback will occur even if Disable-CsAdDomain determines that at least one Front End Server, A/V Conferencing Server, or Web Services server is still active in the domain.
