Examples
Example 1: Get a recoverable item in a recovery point
This example gets a list of recoverable items in the parent and child nodes of a recovery point.
The first command gets the protection group on the DPM server named DPMServer02 and stores the results in the $Pg variable.
The second command gets the list of protected and unprotected data in the protection group stored in the $Pg variable. The command stores the result in the $Ds variable.
The third command gets the recovery point for the protection group stored in the $Ds variable, and stores the result in the $Rp variable.
The fourth command gets the recoverable items in the parent and child nodes of the recovery point stored in $Rp.
PS C:\> $Pg = Get-DPMProtectionGroup -DPMServerName "DPMServer02"
PS C:\> $Ds = Get-DPMDatasource -ProtectionGroup $Pg
PS C:\> $Rp = Get-DPMRecoveryPoint -Datasource $Ds
PS C:\> Get-DPMRecoverableItem -RecoverableItem $Rp -BrowseType child
