Start-DnsServerZoneTransfer |
Starts a zone transfer for a secondary DNS zone from master servers.
Start-DnsServerZoneTransfer [-ComputerName <String>] [-Name] <String> [-FullTransfer] [-PassThru]
[-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [-AsJob] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]
The Start-DnsServerZoneTransfer cmdlet starts a zone transfer of a secondary zone from the master servers. You can do a full transfer, where the secondary Domain Name System (DNS) server gets a copy of all the resource records for the zone. You can also do an incremental transfer, where the secondary DNS server gets new and changed resource records.
A zone transfer forces a check of the version number in the master server Start of Authority (SOA) record. If the version number on the master server is higher than the secondary server version number, then a zone transfer begins that updates the secondary server. If the version number is the same, no zone transfer begins.
PS C:\> Start-DnsServerZoneTransfer -Name "contoso.com"
This command starts a zone transfer on the local DNS server for the secondary zone named contoso.com. The command does not use the FullTransfer parameter, so it performs an incremental transfer.
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.

Type: CimSession[]
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases: Session
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies a DNS server. If you do not specify this parameter, the command runs on the local system. You can specify an IP address or any value that resolves to an IP address, such as a fully qualified domain name (FQDN), Hostname, or NETBIOS name.

Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies 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.
Type: Int32
