Remove-VBRHvProxy

Short Description

Removes a specified Hyper-V backup proxy from Veeam Backup & Replication.  

Applies to

Platform: Hyper-V

For VMware, run Remove-VBRViProxy.

Product Edition: Standard, Enterprise, Enterprise Plus

Syntax

Remove-VBRHvProxy -Proxy <CHvProxy[]> [-WarningAction <ActionPreference>] [-WarningVariable <String>] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

This cmdlet allows you to remove the specified Hyper-V backup proxy from Veeam Backup & Replication.

When you remove a backup proxy, Veeam Backup & Replication unassigns the proxy role from the server, so it is no longer used as a backup proxy. The actual server remains connected to Veeam Backup & Replication.

Remove-VBRHvProxy Note:

You cannot remove a backup proxy that is explicitly selected in any backup, replication or VM copy job. To remove such a proxy, you need to delete all job references to it first.

Run Disable-VBRHvProxy to disable a Hyper-V proxy.
