Syntax

Enable-QADDiagnosticLog [-Path] <string> [-Global] [<CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

Use this cmdlet to turn on diagnostic logging so as to have the ActiveRoles Management Shell cmdlets record diagnostic information to the file specified. When you use this cmdlet without the Global parameter, diagnostic logging is enabled only during the current session. If you want to keep diagnostic logging after you close and reopen Management Shell, use the Global parameter.

Note that the Global parameter does not have an effect on the current session if you have already enabled logging without the Global parameter. Similarly, when global logging is enabled, specifying a new log file by using this cmdlet without the Global parameter causes the current session diagnostic information to be redirected to the file specified.



Parameters

Name Description Required? Pipeline Input Default Value
Global Use this parameter to enable diagnostic logging for the current and future sessions. Without this parameter, diagnostic logging is enabled for the current session only. false false
Path Specify the path and name of the log file to hold the diagnostic information. true false

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

Enable-QADDiagnosticLog 'c:\temp\arsps.log'
