Remove-DfsnFolder

SYNOPSIS

Removes a DFS namespace folder.

SYNTAX

Remove-DfsnFolder [-Path] <String> [-Force] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [-AsJob]
 [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

The Remove-DfsnFolder cmdlet removes a Distributed File System (DFS) namespace folder. When you remove a folder, this cmdlet deletes all the folder targets for the folder. This cmdlet does not delete the folders specified by DFS namespace targets or the files in those folders.

If you remove the last folder within a parent directory, the cmdlet removes the parent folder as well, unless it is the DFS namespace root. To remove a DFS namespace root, use the Remove-DfsnRoot cmdlet.

For more information about DFS namespaces, see Overview of DFS Namespaceshttp://technet.microsoft.com/library/cc730736 (http://technet.microsoft.com/library/cc730736) on TechNet.

EXAMPLES

Example 1: Remove a DFS namespace folder

PS C:\> Remove-DfsnFolder -Path "\\Contoso\AccountingResources\LegacySoftware"

This command removes the DFS namespace folder \\Contoso\AccountingResources\LegacySoftware.
