Description

Removes values from the collection-valued fields of a VIF. Each optional parameter listed below corresponds to a field that can be removed from.

Parameters

-Async

If set, the operation runs asynchronously and returns a Task object that can be used to track its progress. Available only for those fields whose underlying operation supports asynchronous invocation.
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

-Ipv4Allowed

Removes an IPv4 address from this VIF
Attribute Value
Type string
Required False
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

-Ipv6Allowed

Removes an IPv6 address from this VIF
Attribute Value
Type string
Required False
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

-OtherConfig

Remove the given key and its corresponding value from the other\_config field of the given VIF. If the key is not in that Map, then do nothing.
Attribute Value
Type string
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

-QosAlgorithmParams

Remove the given key and its corresponding value from the qos/algorithm\_params field of the given VIF. If the key is not in that Map, then do nothing.
Attribute Value
Type string
Required False
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

-Ref

The VIF object to operate on, specified by its opaque reference.
Attribute Value
Type XenRef[VIF]
Required True
Position 0
Accepts pipeline input True (ByPropertyName)
Aliases opaque_ref

-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

-Trunks

Removes a 802.1Q VLAN from this VIF
Attribute Value
Type long
Required False
Position Named
Accepts pipeline input False

-Uuid

The UUID of the VIF to operate on.
Attribute Value
Type guid
Required True
Position 0
Accepts pipeline input True (ByPropertyName)

-VIF

The VIF object to operate on.
Attribute Value
Type VIF
Required True
Position 0
Accepts pipeline input True (ByValue)

-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
