Move-CollectorJobs

Moves one or more monitoring jobs from one Collector to another.

Applies to versions: 8.0, 9.0, 9a

Syntax

Move-CollectorJobs [-Jobs] <MonitoringJob[]> [-Collector] <String> [-Force] [-VESServer <Object>] [<CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

This cmdlet moves one or more monitoring jobs from one Collector to another.

Note

If you want to assign cluster jobs to a Collector in another monitoring group, you should move all cluster jobs at once.
