Examples

EXAMPLE 1

This example restores a snapshot with the ID {E9A5BA03-85B9-40CA-85DF-DC1695690B40}.

PS C:\> Restore-IscsiVirtualDisk -SnapshotId "{E9A5BA03-85B9-40CA-85DF-DC1695690B40}"

EXAMPLE 2

This example restores a snapshot with the ID {E9A5BA03-85B9-40CA-85DF-DC1695690B40} hosted on a computer named fs1.contoso.com.

PS C:\> Restore-IscsiVirtualDisk -SnapshotId "{E9A5BA03-85B9-40CA-85DF-DC1695690B40}" -ComputerName "fs1.contoso.com"

EXAMPLE 3

This example uses the Get-IscsiVirtualDiskSnapshot cmdlet to retrieve a snapshot, then assigns the snapshot object to a variable named $vhd1snapshot, and finally passes it to this cmdlet to restore the virtual disk.

PS C:\> Restore-IscsiVirtualDisk -InputObject $vhd1snapshot
