Description
The Start-CMCloudDistributionPoint cmdlet starts the cloud distribution point service.
You can use the Stop-CMCloudDistributionPoint cmdlet to suspend distribution of content.
Note
Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.
Examples
Example 1: Start the cloud distribution point service using an ID
PS XYZ:\> Start-CMCloudDistributionPoint -Id "16777242"
This command starts the cloud distribution point service for the cloud distribution point that has the specified identifier.
Example 2: Start the cloud distribution point service using a name
PS XYZ:\> Start-CMCloudDistributionPoint -Name "West01"
This command starts the cloud distribution point service for the cloud distribution point named West01.
Example 3: Start the cloud distribution point service using an object
PS XYZ:\> $DistPnt = Get-CMCloudDistributionPoint -Id "16777242"
PS XYZ:\> Start-CMCloudDistributionPoint -InputObject $DistPnt
The first command uses the Get-CMCloudDistributionPoint cmdlet to get the distribution point with the specified identifier, and then saves it in the $DistPnt variable.
The second command starts the cloud distribution point service for the distribution point stored in $DistPnt.
Parameters
-Confirm
Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.
