Description

DEPRECATED. This class has been deprecated.
Changes writable fields of a HostPatch. Each optional parameter listed below corresponds to a field that can be set.

Parameters

-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

-HostPatch

The HostPatch object to operate on.
Attribute Value
Type Host_patch
Required True
Position 0

-Name

The name of the HostPatch to operate on.
Attribute Value
Type string
Required True
Position 0

-OtherConfig

Set the other\_config field of the given host\_patch.
Attribute Value

-PassThru

If set, the cmdlet returns the affected object. By default the cmdlet does not generate any output.
Attribute Value
Type SwitchParameter

-Ref

The HostPatch object to operate on, specified by its opaque reference.

-Uuid

The UUID of the HostPatch to operate on.

Examples

Example 1: Set the OtherConfig field

PS> Get-XenHostPatch -Name "Demo HostPatch" | Set-XenHostPatch -OtherConfig @{ "key" = "value" }
Sets the OtherConfig field of a HostPatch.

Example 2: Set the OtherConfig field by name

PS> Set-XenHostPatch -OtherConfig @{ "key" = "value" } -Name "Demo HostPatch"
Sets the OtherConfig field of a HostPatch. -Name matches on name\_label, which is not unique, so every match is operated on.

Example 3: Set the OtherConfig field by uuid

PS> Set-XenHostPatch -OtherConfig @{ "key" = "value" } -Uuid 1871ac51-ce6b-efc3-7fd0-28bc65aa39ff
Sets the OtherConfig field of a HostPatch. -Uuid is the way to be sure of exactly one object.
