Export-DnsServerZone

SYNOPSIS

Exports contents of a zone to a file.

SYNTAX

Export-DnsServerZone [-FileName] <String> [-Name] <String> [-ComputerName <String>] [-PassThru]
 [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [-AsJob] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

The Export-DnsServerZone cmdlet creates a file containing resource records for an Active Directory-integrated zone for troubleshooting purposes. This file is not in the same format as a file-backed zonefile. By default, the cmdlet places the file in the Domain Name System (DNS) directory which, by default, is C:\Windows\System32\dns.

EXAMPLES

Example 1: Export a zone

PS C:\> Export-DnsServerZone -Name "western.contoso.com" -FileName "exportedcontoso.com"

This command exports the zone named western.contoso.com to a file called exportedcontoso.com.

PARAMETERS

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.

For more information about Windows PowerShell background jobs, see about_Jobs.

-ThrottleLimit

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
