The Remove-WssBackupConfiguration cmdlet removes a file specification from a backup volume. When you remove a file specification from a backup volume, the files and folders in the file specification are no longer backed up with the backup volume.

Examples

Example 1: Remove a file specification from a backup volume

PS C:\>$ContosoBUVolume110 = Get-WssBackupVolume -AllVolumes PS C:\>$ContosoBUFilespec05 = Get-WssBackupConfiguration -Volume $ContosoBUVolume110[0] PS C:\>Remove-WssBackupConfiguration -Configuration $ContosoBUFilespec05[1]

This command removes the backup file specification from a backup volume.

The first command gets the backup volumes from the server and stores them in the variable named $ContosoBUVolume110.

The second command gets the backup file specification from the first item (located in position 0) in $ContosoBUVolume110 and stores the backup file specification in the variable named $ContosoBUFilespec05.
