Parameters

Parameter Required Type Description

Identity

Optional

Xds Identity

Service location of the Monitoring Server to be modified. For example: -Identity "MonitoringServer:atl-cs-001.litwareinc.com". You can retrieve the Identity for all of your Monitoring servers by using this command:

Get-CsService –MonitoringServer | Select-Object Identity.

MonitoringDatabase

Optional

String

Service location for the new Monitoring Server database. For example: -MonitoringDatabase "MonitoringDatabase:atl-sql-001.litwareinc.com". Make sure you use the service location of the database store and not the SQL Server path name.

ReportingUrl

Optional

String

URL for the Monitoring Server reports. Note that these reports will not be available unless you install SQL Server Reporting Services and the Monitoring Server Report Pack.

Force

Optional

Switch Parameter

Suppresses the display of any non-fatal error message that might arise when running the command.

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

Monitoring Server provides you with two important capabilities. For one, it enables you to maintain information about how, and how often, Enterprise Voice is used in your organization. This information is tracked by using call detail records (CDR), records which detail such things as who made a call, who that person called, and how long the call lasted. (The actual conversation itself is not recorded.) In addition to that, you can also use Monitoring Server to keep track of Quality of Experience (QoE) data for your Enterprise Voice calls. As the name implies, Quality of Experience data provides information about the quality of a call, measuring such items as packet loss, call degradation, network bitrate, and "jitter."

When you install Monitoring Server you must specify the location of the SQL Server database used to store CDR and QoE data. Optionally, you can also install SQL Server Reporting Services and the Monitoring Server Report Pack; these two items enable you to access a Web site that generates standard monitoring reports for you.

As a general rule, after Monitoring Server has been installed and configured you will not need to change the location of either the backend database or the reporting URL. However, if you do need to change the location of one (or both) of these items, you can do so by running the Set-CsMonitoringServer cmdlet.

Return Types

Set-CsMonitoringServer does not return any objects or values. Instead, the cmdlet modifies existing instances of the Microsoft.Rtc.Management.Xds.DisplayMonitoringServer object.

Examples

-------------------------- Example 1 ------------------------

Copy Code
Set-CsMonitoringServer -Identity "MonitoringServer:atl-cs-001.litwareinc.com" -ReportingUrl "https://atl-cs-001.litwareinc.com/reports"

The command shown in Example 1 configures a new URL for the Monitoring Server reporting pack.
