Examples

Example 1: Get a recovery point

The first command gets the protection group on the DPM server named DPMServer02, and then stores the results in the $PGroup variable.

The second command gets the list of protected and unprotected data in the protection group stored in $PGroup. The command stores the results in the $PObjects variable.

The third command gets the recovery point for the data source stored in $PObjects.

PS C:\> $PGroup = Get-DPMProtectionGroup -DPMServerName "DPMServer02"
PS C:\> $PObjects = Get-DPMDatasource -ProtectionGroup $PGroup
PS C:\> Get-DPMRecoveryPoint -Datasource $PObjects
