Retrieves information about the SMB clients connected to the SMB witness servers in a cluster.SYNTAX
Get-SmbWitnessClient [[-ClientName]
] [-CimSession ] [-Flags
] [-State ] [-ThrottleLimit ] [ ] DESCRIPTION
The Get-SmbWitnessClient cmdlet retrieves information about Server Message Block (SMB) witness client
registrations with SMB witness servers in a failover cluster. SMB witness clients can register for notification for multiple resources in the failover cluster, so there may be multiple entries for the same SMB witness client.PARAMETERS

Accept wildcard characters? false-Flags [
Specifies an array of flags. Required? false Position? named Default value none] Accept pipeline input? true(ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false-State [
Specifies that the output is filtered based on the state of the SMB witness client registrations with SMB witness servers in a failover cluster. The acceptable values for this parameter are:] -- Connected
-- Registered
-- RequestedNotifications
-- Cancelled
-- Disconnected
-- Unknown
Required? false Position? named Default value noneAccept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false-ThrottleLimit [
