If you want to filter the diagnostic logs by computer name while using the Send-AzureStackDiagnosticLog cmdlet in PowerShell, you should use the "FilterByNode" parameter.

The "Send-AzureStackDiagnosticLog" cmdlet is a PowerShell cmdlet that is used to send diagnostic logs from Azure Stack Hub to Microsoft. This cmdlet sends all the logs by default, but it also provides several parameters that can be used to filter the logs before sending them to Microsoft.

The "FilterByComputer" parameter is not a valid parameter for the Send-AzureStackDiagnosticLog cmdlet. The correct parameter to use for filtering logs by computer name is "FilterByNode". The "FilterByNode" parameter specifies the name of the node (computer) for which you want to filter the diagnostic logs.

For example, to filter the diagnostic logs for a node named "AzureStackHubNode1", you would use the following command:

rust
Send-AzureStackDiagnosticLog -FilterByNode AzureStackHubNode1

This command will send only the diagnostic logs for the node named "AzureStackHubNode1" to Microsoft.

It is important to note that the "FilterByNode" parameter is case sensitive. Therefore, you must use the exact name of the node (computer) that you want to filter the logs for, including the correct capitalization. If you do not use the correct capitalization, the filter will not work correctly, and you may end up sending more logs than you intended.
