Configure the Content Type Hub

Scenario/Problem: You need to set or change the content type hub which should be used by the metadata service application.

Solution: Use the Set-SPMetadataServiceApplication cmdlet with the HubUri parameter.

The content type hub is the site collection you want to use as your main content type gallery. The metadata service application uses the specified content type hub to consume the content types that exist within the site collection. You can set the content type hub using the HubUri parameter with the Set-SPMetadataServiceApplication cmdlet, as shown in Listing 17.5.
