Examples
Example 1: Add recoverable items for a DPM role
This example adds a SQL database and a SQL instance to the recovery items that members of a DPM role can recover.
The first command gets the protection groups on the DPM server named DPMServer02 and stores the result in the $ListOfPGs variable.
The second command gets the protected and unprotected data from the first protection group stored in the $ListOfPGs variable. The command stores the result in the $DatasourceInPG variable.
The third command adds a SQL database to the recovery items that members of the DPM role stored in the $Role variable can recover. The data source stored in the $DatasourceInPG variable contains the SQL database.
The fourth command adds a SQL instance to the recovery items that members of the DPM role stored in the $Role variable can recover.
PS C:\> $ListOfPGs = Get-DPMProtectionGroup -DPMServerName "DPMServer02"
PS C:\> $DatasourceInPG = Get-DPMDatasource -ProtectionGroup $ListOfPGs[0]
PS C:\> Add-DPMRecoveryItem -DPMRole $Role -Type SQLDatabase -Datasource $DatasourceInPG
PS C:\> Add-DPMRecoveryItem -DPMRole $Role -Type SQLInstance -Sqlinstances "ProductionServer\Unit01Instance"
