Syntax

Get-CsUserDatabaseState

   [<CommonParameters>]

Get-CsUserDatabaseState
   [-RegistrarPool <Fqdn>]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

Skype for Business Server employs the user database (also known as the user store) to maintain presence and routing information for Skype for Business Server users. The Get-CsUserDatabaseState cmdlet provides a way to verify the current status (either online or offline) for any of the user databases currently in use in your organization.

Note that, by default, the firewall exceptions for SQL Server Express are not enabled when you install the Standard Edition of Skype for Business Server. In turn, that means that you will not be able to run the Get-CsUserDatabaseState cmdlet from a remote instance of Windows PowerShell. That's because your command will not be able to traverse the firewall and access the SQL Server Express database. You can still run the cmdlet locally (that is, on the Standard Edition server itself). However, to run the Get-CsUserDatabaseState cmdlet remotely you will need to manually enable the firewall exceptions for SQL Server Express.

Examples

-------------------------- EXAMPLE --------------------------

Get-CsUserDatabaseState

The command shown in Example 1 returns the online status of each user database configured for use in your organization.

-------------------------- EXAMPLE --------------------------

Get-CsUserDatabaseState -Identity "UserDatabase:atl-sql-001.litwareinc.com"

The command shown in Example 2 returns the online status of a single user database: the database with the Identity UserDatabase:atl-sql-001.litwareinc.com.

-------------------------- EXAMPLE --------------------------

Get-CsUserDatabaseState -RegistrarPool "atl-cs-001.litwareinc.com"\

In Example 3, status information is returned for all the user databases located in the Registrar pool atl-cs-001.litwareinc.com.

-------------------------- EXAMPLE --------------------------

Get-CsUserDatabaseState | Where-Object {$_.Online -eq $True}

In Example 4, information is returned for all the user databases that are currently online. To do this, the command first calls the Get-CsUserDatabaseState cmdlet without any parameters. That returns a collection of all the user databases in use in the organization. That collection is then piped to the Where-Object cmdlet, which picks out only those databases where the Online property is equal to True.

Parameters
