] DESCRIPTION
The Set-NetAdapterVmq cmdlet sets the virtual machine queue (VMQ) properties of a network adapter. VMQ is a
scaling networking technology for Hyper-V switch that improves network throughput by distributing processing of
network traffic for multiple virtual machines among multiple processors. A thorough familiarity with VMQ and dynamic VMQ is highly recommended before changing any default values with this cmdlet.PARAMETERS
-AsJob [
ps_cimcommon_asjob Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false] -BaseProcessorGroup
Specifies the processor group to be used by VMQ. Support for systems that have more than 64 logical processors is based on the concept of a processor group, which is a static set of up to 64 logical processors. Processor groups are numbered starting with 0. Computers with fewer than 64 logical processors always have a single group, Group 0. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false-BaseProcessorNumber
Specifies the starting processor to be used within the processor group for VMQ. Support for systems that have more than 64 logical processors is based on the concept of a processor group, which is a static set of up to 64 logical processors. Processor groups are numbered starting with 0. Computers with fewer than 64 logical processors always have a single group, Group 0. A logical processor is identified by a group number, using theBaseProcessorGroup parameter, and a group-relative processor number, using this parameter.
Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false-CimSession
Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, suchas the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local
computer. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false-Enabled
Indicates whether VMQ is enabled or disabled. The acceptable values for this parameter are: $True or $False.
Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false-IncludeHidden [
Indicates that the cmdlet includes both visible and hidden network adapters in the operation. By default only visible network adapters are included. If a wildcard character is used in identifying a network adapter and this parameter has been specified, then the wildcard string is matched against both hidden and visible network adapters. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false] -InputObject
Specifies the input to this cmdlet. You can use this parameter, or you can pipe the input to this cmdlet. Required? true Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? true (ByValue) Accept wildcard characters? false-InterfaceDescription
Specifies an array of network adapter interface descriptions. For a physical network adapter this is typically the name of the vendor of the network adapter followed by a part number and description, such as Contoso 12345 Gigabit Network Device. Required? true Position? named Default valueAccept pipeline input? true (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? true-MaxProcessorNumber
Specifies the largest processor number in the group. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false-MaxProcessors
Specifies the maximum number of processors used by VMQ for load balancing network transmissions. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false-Name
Specifies an array of network adapter names. Required? true Position? 1 Default valueAccept pipeline input? true (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? true-NoRestart [
Indicates that the cmdlet does not restart the network adapter after completing the operation. Many advanced properties require restarting the network adapter before the new settings take effect. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false] -NumaNode
Specifies the preferred non-uniform memory access (NUMA) node for the affinity of the VMQs allocated on this
network adapter. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false-PassThru [
Returns an object representing the item with which you are working. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false] -ThrottleLimit
Specifies 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 PowerShellr 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. Required? false Position? named Default value Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false-Confirm [
Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet. Required? false Position? named Default value false Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false] -WhatIf [
Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run. Required? false Position? named Default value false Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false] This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug, ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable, OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable.

PS C:\>Set-NetAdapterVmq -Name "MyAdapter" -Enabled $True
This command enables VMQ on the network adapter named MyAdapter. The Enable-NetAdapterVmq cmdlet is the preferred
cmdlet to perform this operation.RELATED LINKS
