Examples

Example 1: List every VMPP

PS> Get-XenVMPP
Retrieves every VMPP object in the pool. With no parameters the cmdlet fetches the whole collection.

Example 2: Retrieve one VMPP by name

PS> Get-XenVMPP -Name "Demo VMPP"
Retrieves a single VMPP. -Name matches on name\_label, which is not unique, so every match is operated on.

Example 3: Retrieve one VMPP by uuid

PS> Get-XenVMPP -Uuid 1871ac51-ce6b-efc3-7fd0-28bc65aa39ff
Retrieves a single VMPP. -Uuid is the way to be sure of exactly one object.
