Detailed Description

The Set-DPMDatasourceProtectionOption cmdlet sets protection options for a System Center 2012 – Data Protection Manager (DPM) data source. You can set the following protection options:

-- Exclude all files of a particular type (for example, all MP3 files) from protection.
-- Remove exclusions.
-- Set protection options for a Microsoft Exchange data source.

Parameters

-Add

Indicates that the cmdlet adds a file exclusion to a protection group.

-AllowClientUserToAddFileSpecs<Boolean>

Indicates whether the user can specify which folders to protect.

-AutoConsistencyCheck<Boolean>

Indicates whether DPM automatically runs consistency checks on the data sources of a protection group if a replica becomes inconsistent.

-BackUpType<AllowedBackupTypeType>

Indicates the type of backup. Valid values for this parameter are:

-- CopyBackup
-- FullBackup.

-ClientFileSpecOperation<ClientFileSpecOperationType>

Indicates which folders to add to the inclusion list or remove from the exclusion list. Valid values for this parameter are:

-- AddInclude
-- RemoveInclude
-- AddExclude
-- RemoveExclude

-Datasource<Datasource>

Specifies a data source object. A data source can be a Windows file system share or volume, SQL Server database, Microsoft Exchange storage group, Microsoft SharePoint farm, virtual machine, DPM database, or system state that is a member of a protection group.

Indicates how to run the Exchange database repair tool Eseutil. Valid values for this parameter are:

-- DontRun

-Path<String>

Specifies the path to a folder to add to the inclusion list or remove from the exclusion list.

-PreferredPhysicalNode<String[]>

Specifies an array of names of servers to protect for Preferred Server topology. This parameter applies only to servers that use cluster continuous replication in Microsoft Exchange Server 2007.

-ProtectionGroup<ProtectionGroup>

Specifies a protection group object.

-Remove

Indicates that the cmdlet performs a remove operation.

-RunEseUtilConsistencyCheck

Indicates that the cmdlet runs Eseutil consistency checking. This parameter applies only to Microsoft Exchange data sources.

-TopologyType<ProtectionTopologyType>

Specifies the topology type. Valid values for this parameter are:

Examples

Example 1: Set a consistency check for a protection group

This example sets a consistency check for a protection group.

The first command gets the protection groups from the server named DPMServer02 and stores the result in the $Pg variable.

The second command sets an automatic consistency check to run on all protection groups in $Pg.

PS C:\> $Pg = Get-DPMProtectionGroup –DPMServerName "DPMServer02"
C:\> Set-DPMDatasourceProtectionOption -ProtectionGroup $Pg -AutoConsistencyCheck $True
