Examples
Example 1: Add a backup volume to a backup policy
This example adds a backup volume to scheduled backup policy.
The first command gets the current backup policy for the computer, makes it editable, and stores it in the variable named $ContosoBUPolicy24.
The second command creates a backup volume from drive F: and stores it in the variable named $ContosoEmpData10.
The third command adds the backup volume that is stored in $ContosoEmpData10 to the scheduled backup policy that is stored in $ContosoBUPolicy24.
PS C:\> $ContosoBUPolicy24 = Get-WBPolicy -Editable
PS C:\> $ContosoEmpData10 = Get-WBVolume –VolumePath F:\
PS C:\> Add-WssBackupVolume -BackupPolicy $ContosoBUPolicy24 -BackupVolume $ContosoEmpData10
