Move-SPBlobStorageLocation |
2.0.0 |
Copies a content database to a new location by using Remote BLOB Storage (RBS).
Move-SPBlobStorageLocation [-SourceDatabase] <String> [-AssignmentCollection <SPAssignmentCollection>]
[-Confirm] [-DestinationDatabase <String>] [-DestinationDataSourceInstance <String>] [-Dir <String>]
[-VerboseMod <Boolean>] [-WhatIf] [<CommonParameters>]
Use the Move-SPBlobStorageLocation cmdlet to use Remote BLOB Storage (RBS) to copy a content database to an instance of a SQL Server database. The database size limitation for SQL Server is 4 gigabytes (GB). If a content database is greater than 4 GB, the database cannot be copied directly to a SQL Server database instance. The Move-SPBlobStorageLocation cmdlet uses the advantage of RBS and copies databases larger than 4 GB. RBS stores the data on the local hard disk and keeps the links to the data in the database, which results in a smaller database.
For permissions and the most current information about Windows PowerShell for SharePoint Products, see the online documentation at SharePoint Server Cmdlets.
Move-SPBlobStorageLocation WSS_ContentThis example copies the content database named WSS_Content from the Windows Internal Database to the same database name in SQL Server 2008 Express by using RBS.
Move-SPBlobStorageLocation WSS_Content -DestinationDatabase WSS_V4_Content -BackupDatabase WSSBackupDB -VerboseMod:$trueThis example copies the content database named WSS_Content from the Windows Internal Database to a database in SQL Server 2008 Express. The name of the new database will be WSS_V4_Content. During the move, the backup file name will be WSSBackupDB. The output of this command displays log information to the Command Prompt window.
Specifies the name of the Windows Internal Database.

Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: FalseManages objects for the purpose of proper disposal. Use of objects, such as SPWeb or SPSite, can use large amounts of memory and use of these objects in Windows PowerShell scripts requires proper memory management. Using the SPAssignment object, you can assign objects to a variable and dispose of the objects after they are needed to free up memory. When SPWeb, SPSite, or SPSiteAdministration objects are used, the objects are automatically disposed of if an assignment collection or the Global parameter is not used.
When the Global parameter is used, all objects are contained in the global store. If objects are not immediately used, or disposed of by using the Stop-SPAssignment command, an out-of-memory scenario can occur.
