Enable-CsReplica

Adds the local computer to the Skype for Business Server replication path. This cmdlet was introduced in Lync Server 2010.

Syntax

Default (Default)

Enable-CsReplica
    [-GlobalCatalog <Fqdn>]
    [-Report <String>]
    [-Force]
    [-WhatIf]
    [-Confirm]
    [-GlobalSettingsDomainController <Fqdn>]
    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

When a service or server role is installed on a computer, that computer needs to be added to the replication path; doing so enables the computer to receive the topology and configuration files from the Central Management store. The Enable-CsReplica cmdlet provides a way for you to manually add a computer to the replication path. As a general rule, you will not need to manually add a computer to the replication path. Instead, this will automatically take place when you install Skype for Business Server 2015 on a computer.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1 (Skype for Business Server 2015)
