      .SYNOPSIS
      Registers a host with a Rubrik cluster.

      .DESCRIPTION
      The New-RubrikHost cmdlet is used to register a host with the Rubrik cluster. This could be a host leveraging the Rubrik Backup Service or directly as with the case of NAS shares.

      .EXAMPLE
      New-RubrikHost -Name 'Server1.example.com'
      This will register a host that resolves to the name "Server1.example.com"

      .EXAMPLE
      New-RubrikHost -Name 'NAS.example.com' -HasAgent $false
      This will register a host that resolves to the name "NAS.example.com" without using the Rubrik Backup Service
      In this case, the example host is a NAS share.
