Set the replica creation method for disk-based protection.
Set-ReplicaCreationMethod [-ProtectionGroup] <ProtectionGroup> -Now [-OnlineReplica <SwitchParameter>] [-PassThru <SwitchParameter>] [<CommonParameters>]
Set-ReplicaCreationMethod [-ProtectionGroup] <ProtectionGroup> -Manual <SwitchParameter> [-OnlineReplica <SwitchParameter>] [-PassThru <SwitchParameter>] [<CommonParameters>]
Set-ReplicaCreationMethod [-ProtectionGroup] <ProtectionGroup> -Later <DateTime> [-OnlineReplica <SwitchParameter>] [-PassThru <SwitchParameter>] [<CommonParameters>]
The Set-ReplicaCreationMethod cmdlet allows you to specify the replica creation method disk-based protection.
The possible values are Now, Later, and Manual. If you do not specify a value, the default is set to Now.
If you specify Now for disk, it will start replication as soon as the protection group is created. In you use -OnlineReplica, the replication to DPM Online will start only after replication to DPM server disk is completed.
The Set-ReplicaCreationMethod cmdlet is the second step to change the replica creation method that is specified for a protection group. First, you must retrieve the replica creation method by using the Get-ReplicaCreationMethod cmdlet.
This cmdlet can only be used if the protection is set to Short-Term for Disk and for Long-Term DPM Online. For any other setting it will show an error. Specifically, this cmdlet does not apply to tape-based protection.
