Add-HpcTest

Adds custom diagnostic tests to the set of diagnostic tests that administrators can run on the HPC cluster.

Syntax

Default (Default)

Add-HpcTest
    [-File] <String>
    [-ClusterConnectionString <String[]>]
    [-Scheduler <String[]>]
    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Add-HpcTest cmdlet adds the custom diagnostic tests that the specified XML file defines to the set of diagnostic tests that administrators can run on the HPC cluster.

For information about creating custom diagnostic tests, see Diagnostics Extensibility in Windows HPC Server 2008 R2 Step-by-Step Guidehttp://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=177604 (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=177604).

Examples

Example 1: Add a diagnostic test

PS C:\>Add-HpcTest -File "C:\DiagnosticTest\CustomSuite1.xml"

This command adds the diagnostic tests defined in the XML file at C:\DiagnosticTest\CustomSuite1.xml to the set of diagnostic tests for the HPC cluster.

Parameters

-ClusterConnectionString

Specifies an array of cluster connection strings for the cluster to which you want to add the device drivers. The value format is host1,host2,host3. If you do not specify the ClusterConnectionString parameter, this cmdlet uses the connection string on the head node that the CCP_CONNECTIONSTRING environment variable specifies. To set this environment variable, run the following cmdlet: Set-Content Env: CCP_CONNECTIONSTRING \<head_node_name\>.

This parameter was introduced in HPC Pack 2016.

Parameter properties

Type:

String[]

Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

-File

Specifies the name of the XML file that defines the diagnostic tests that you want to add to the cluster, including the relative or full path if the file is not in the current directory. The file name and path must be valid.

-Scheduler

Specifies the host name or IP address of the head node for the cluster to which you want to add the diagnostic tests. The value must be a valid computer name or IP address. If you do not specify the Scheduler parameter, this cmdlet uses the scheduler on the head node that the CCP_SCHEDULER environment variable specifies. To set this environment variable, run the following cmdlet:

Set-Content Env:CCP_SCHEDULER \<head_node_name\>
