Description

Creates a new GPUGroup object.
GPUGroup: A group of compatible GPUs across the resource pool.

Parameters

-Async

If set, the operation runs asynchronously and returns a Task object that can be used to track its progress.
Attribute Value
Type SwitchParameter
Required False
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

-BestEffort

If set, the cmdlet continues processing further objects instead of throwing a terminating error when an operation fails for one object.
Attribute Value
Type SwitchParameter
Required False
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

-Confirm

Prompts for confirmation before running the cmdlet.
Attribute Value
Type SwitchParameter
Required False
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

-HashTable

A hashtable of field names to values, from which to create the GPUGroup.
Attribute Value
Type hashtable
Required True
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

-NameDescription

This parameter has no documentation.
Attribute Value
Type string
Required False
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

-NameLabel

This parameter has no documentation.
Attribute Value
Type string
Required False
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

-OtherConfig

This parameter has no documentation.
Attribute Value
Type hashtable
Required False
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

-PassThru

If set, the cmdlet returns the affected object. By default the cmdlet does not generate any output.
Attribute Value
Type SwitchParameter
Required False
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

-Record

An existing GPUGroup record whose fields are used to create the new object.
Attribute Value
Type GPU_group
Required True
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

-SessionOpaqueRef

The session object on which to run the cmdlet. This overrides the default session and lets you target a specific open XenServer connection.
Attribute Value
Type string
Required False
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

-WhatIf

Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.
Attribute Value
Type SwitchParameter
Required False
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

Examples

Example 1: Create a GPUGroup

PS> New-XenGPUGroup -NameLabel "value" -NameDescription "value" -OtherConfig @{ "key" = "value" } -PassThru
New-XenGPUGroup takes the arguments of the create call rather than a record of fields, and needs all of them. -PassThru returns the new GPUGroup.

Example 2: Create a GPUGroup and wait for the task

PS> New-XenGPUGroup -NameLabel "value" -NameDescription "value" -OtherConfig @{ "key" = "value" } -Async -PassThru |
    Wait-XenTask -ShowProgress
-Async hands the work to the server and returns the Task that represents it, which pipes into Wait-XenTask.

Example 3: See what would be created

PS> New-XenGPUGroup -NameLabel "value" -NameDescription "value" -OtherConfig @{ "key" = "value" } -WhatIf
Reports what would be created without creating it. Every cmdlet that changes the server takes -WhatIf and -Confirm.
