Set-OBRetentionPolicy
Syntax
Parameter Set: Default Set-OBRetentionPolicy [-Policy] <CBPolicy> [-RetentionPolicy] <CBRetentionPolicy> [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [ <CommonParameters>]
Detailed Description
The Set-OBRetentionPolicy cmdlet sets the retention policy for the backup policy (OBPolicy object). The allowed retention days for the OBRetentionPolicy object are 7, 15,or 30.
This cmdlet supports WhatIf and Confirm parameters with a medium impact. The medium impact signifies that the cmdlet will not prompt the user for confirmation by default. The WhatIf parameter gives a verbose description of what the cmdlet does without performing any operation. The Confirm parameter specifies whether the cmdlet should prompt the user. Using –Confirm:$FALSE will override the prompt.
To use Windows Azure Backup cmdlets, the user must be a member of the Administrators group or Backup Operators group.
