Description
The Add-ClusterExcludedAdapter cmdlet adds a network adapter to a list of network adapters that
should be excluded from use by the Failover Cluster. By default, the cluster will use all available
network adapters, but in some cases you may want to reserve certain adapters as backup or
management, such as Dell iDRAC or HPE iLO.
Examples
Example 1
Add-ClusterExcludedAdapter -ExclusionType "IPPrefix" -ExclusionValue "10.10.20.25"
This example excludes the network adapter based on the IP Address 10.10.20.25 from use by the
cluster.
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.
For more information about Windows PowerShell background jobs, see about_Jobs.
