Description

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

  • Exclude all files of a particular type from protection.
  • Remove exclusions.
  • Set protection options for a Microsoft Exchange Server data source.

Examples

Example 1: Set a consistency check for a protection group

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

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

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