New-VBRCloudFailoverPlanObject -RestorePoint <COib> [-BootOrder <int>] [-BootDelay <int>] [-PublicIpRule <VBRFailoverPlanPublicIPRule[]>]  [<CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

This cmdlet creates a new VBRCloudFailoverPlanObject object. This object contains VM replicas that you want to add to a cloud failover plan. You can add the following types of replicas for a failover plan:

  • Simple cloud replicas
  • vCD cloud replicas

Run Add-VBRFailoverPlan to create a failover plan.

New-VBRCloudFailoverPlanObject Note:

BootDelay

Specifies the delay time for the replica to boot.

The delay time is set in seconds.

If omitted, the delay time will be set to 60 sec by default.

Example

This example shows how to create VBRCloudFailoverPlanObject objects for three servers: a DNS server and two Microsoft Exchange servers. The servers will boot with the following order:

  • The DNS server boots first.
  • The first Microsoft Exchange server boots with the 180 seconds delay.
  • The second Microsoft Exchange server boots with the 120 seconds delay.

You will need to perform the following steps:

  1. Run Get-VBRRestorePoint to get the necessary restore point for the DNS server. Use the Sort-Object and the Select commands to select the first restore point. Save the result to the $DNS variable.
  2. Run Get-VBRRestorePoint to get the necessary restore point for the first Microsoft Exchange server. Use the Sort-Object and the Select commands to select the first restore point. Save the result to the $MSExchange01 variable.
  3. Run Get-VBRRestorePoint to get the necessary restore point for the second Microsoft Exchange server. Use the Sort-Object and the Select commands to select the first restore point. Save the result to the $MSExchange02 variable.
  4. Run New-VBRCloudFailoverPlanObject with the $DNS variable.
  5. Run New-VBRCloudFailoverPlanObject with the $MSExchange01 variable.
  6. Run New-VBRCloudFailoverPlanObject with the $MSExchange02 variable.

$DNS = Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name "DNSServer" | Sort-Object $_.creationtime -Descending | Select -First 1

$MSExchange01 = Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name "MS_Exchange_Server_01" | Sort-Object $_.creationtime -Descending | Select -First 1

$MSExchange02 = Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name "MS_Exchange_Server_02" | Sort-Object $_.creationtime -Descending | Select -First 1

New-VBRCloudFailoverPlanObject -RestorePoint $DNS -BootDelay 0

New-VBRFailoverPlanObject -RestorePoint $MSExchange01 -BootOrder 1  -BootDelay 180

New-VBRFailoverPlanObject -RestorePoint $MSExchange02 -BootOrder 2  -BootDelay 120
