Examples
Example 1: Create a recovery point and run a backup
This example creates a recovery point for a data source and performs a backup.
The first command gets the protection group on the DPM server named DPMServer02 and store the results in the $Pg variable.
The second command gets the list of protected and unprotected data in the protection group stored in the $Pg variable. The command stores the results in the $Ds variable.
The third command creates a recovery point for the data source stored in the $Ds variable, and performs an expressfull backup.
PS C:\> $Pg = Get-DPMProtectionGroup -DPMServerName "DPMServer02"
PS C:\> $Ds = Get-DPMDatasource -ProtectionGroup $Pg
PS C:\> New-DPMRecoveryPoint -Datasource $Ds -Disk -BackupType expressfull
Example 2: Create a recovery point and synchronize with the data source
This example creates a recovery point for a data source and synchronizes the recovery point with the data source.
The first command gets the protection group on the DPM server named DPMServer02 and store the results in the $Pg variable.
The second command gets the list of protected and unprotected data in the protection group stored in the $Pg variable. The command stores the results in the $Ds variable.
The third command creates a recovery point for the data source stored in the $Ds variable, and synchronizes the recovery point with the data source.
PS C:\> $Pg = Get-DPMProtectionGroup -DPMServerName "DPMServer02"
PS C:\> $Ds = Get-DPMDatasource -ProtectionGroup $Pg
PS C:\> New-DPMRecoveryPoint -Datasource $Ds -Disk -DiskRecoveryPointOption withsynchronize
Example 3: Create a short-term recovery point on tape
This example creates a short-term recovery point on tape for a data source.
The first command gets the protection group on the DPM server named DPMServer02 and store the results in the $Pg variable.
The second command gets the list of protected and unprotected data in the protection group stored in the $Pg variable. The command stores the results in the $Ds variable.
The third command creates a recovery point on tape for the data source stored in the $Ds variable, and sets the protection type to short-term.
PS C:\> $Pg = Get-DPMProtectionGroup -DPMServerName "DPMServer02"
PS C:\> $Ds = Get-DPMDatasource -ProtectionGroup $Pg
PS C:\> New-DPMRecoveryPoint -Datasource $Ds -Tape -ProtectionType ShortTerm
