Set-SCCloudCapacity

Modifies the cloud capacity settings for a private cloud.

Description

The Set-SCCloudCapacity cmdlet modifies the cloud capacity settings for a private cloud in System Center Virtual Machine Manager (VMM). You can update the following cloud capacity dimensions:

- virtual machines
- virtual CPUs 
- custom quota points
- storage (GB)
- memory (MB)

Alternatively, you can set any or all of the dimensions to use the maximum capacity.

Examples

1: Change the cloud capacity properties of a specified cloud. 
PS C:\> $Cloud = Get-SCCloud -Name "Cloud01"
PS C:\> $CloudCapacity = Get-SCCloudCapacity -Cloud $Cloud
PS C:\> Set-SCCloudCapacity -CloudCapacity $CloudCapacity -VirtualCPUCountLimited $True -VirtualCPUCount 20 

The first command gets the private cloud object named Cloud01 and stores the object in the $Cloud variable.

The second command gets the cloud capacity for the private cloud stored in $Cloud and stores it in the $CloudCapacity variable.

The last command indicates that there should be a limit placed on the virtual CPU count for the cloud capacity stored in $CloudCapacity, and changes the virtual CPU count capacity to 20.
2: Change the cloud capacity properties of a specific private cloud using a job group. 
PS C:\> $Guid = [System.Guid]::NewGuid()
PS C:\> $Cloud = Get-SCCloud -Name "Cloud02"
PS C:\> $CloudCapacity = Get-SCCloudCapacity -Cloud $Cloud
PS C:\> Set-SCCloudCapacity -JobGroup $Guid -VirtualMachinesLimited $True -VirtualMachines 50 -VirtualCPUCountLimited $True -VirtualCPUCount 100 -StorageLimited $True -StorageGB 500
PS C:\> Set-SCCloud -JobGroup $Guid -Cloud $Cloud

The first command creates a new GUID and stores it in the $Guid variable. Subsequent commands that include this GUID are collected into a single job group.

The second command gets the private cloud object named Cloud02 and stores the object in the $Cloud variable.

The third command gets the cloud capacity object for the private cloud stored in $cloud and stores the object in the $CloudCapacity variable.

The fourth command sets a limit of 50 virtual machines, 100 virtual CPUs and 500 GB of storage on the cloud capacity. Using the JobGroup parameter specifies tha this command will not run until just before the final command that includes the JobGroup with the same GUID.

The last command sets the capacity properties on the private cloud stored in $Cloud using the settings that were specified in the fourth command. This command uses the JobGroup parameter to run Set-SCCloudCapacity just before Set-SCCloud runs so that the settings will be assocated with the specified private cloud.
