.NAME
    SPWebAppPolicy
 
.DESCRIPTION
     
    This resource is used to set the User Policies for web applications. The usernames
    can be either specified in Classic or Claims format, both will be accepted. There
    are a number of approaches to how this can be implemented. The "Members" property
    will set a specific list of members for the group, making sure that every user/group
    in the list is in the group and all others that are members and who are not in this
    list will be removed. The "MembersToInclude" and "MembersToExclude" properties will
    allow you to control a specific set of users to add or remove, without changing any
    other members that are in the group already that may not be specified here, allowing
    for some manual management outside of this configuration resource.
     
    Requirements:
    At least one of the Members, MemberToInclude or MembersToExclude properties needs to be
    specified. Do not combine the Members property with the MemberToInclude and
    MembersToExclude properties. Do not set the ActAsSystemAccount property to $true without
    setting the permission level to Full Control.
