Short Description
Modifies backed-up virtual disk mapping settings.
Product Edition: Standard, Enterprise, Enterprise Plus, Veeam Universal License
Syntax
Set-VBRViVirtualDeviceMappingRule -MappingRule <VBRViVirtualDeviceMappingRule> [-SourceVirtualDevice <VBRViVirtualDevice>] [-Datastore <CViDatastoreItem>] [<CommonParameters>] |
Detailed Description
This cmdlet modifies mapping settings of backed-up virtual disks.
Parameters
Parameter | Description | Type | Required | Position | Accept Pipeline Input |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
MappingRule | Specifies the mapping settings that you want to modify. | Accepts the VBRViVirtualDeviceMappingRule object. To define this object, run the New-VBRViVirtualDeviceMappingRule cmdlet. | True | Named | True (ByValue, ByPropertyName) |
SourceVirtualDevice | Specifies backed-up virtual disks. The cmdlet will map these disks to the datastore. | Accepts the VBRViVirtualDevice object. To create this object, run the Get-VBRViVirtualDevice cmdlet. | False | Named | False |
Datastore | Specifies a datastore. The cmdelt will map backed-up virtual disks to this datastore. | Accepts the CViDatastoreItem object. To create this object, run the Find-VBRViDatastore cmdlet. | False | Named | False |
<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports Microsoft PowerShell common parameters. For more information on common parameters, see the About CommonParameters section of Microsoft Docs.
Output Object
The cmdlet returns the VBRViVirtualDeviceMappingRule object that defines backed-up virtual disks mapping settings.
Examples
Modifying Mapping Settings of Backed-Up Virtual Disks
This example shows how to modify an existing mapping rule. The cmdlet will set this rule to map backed-up virtual disks to the LocalStore_0 datastore.
$backup = Get-VBRBackup -Name "Winsrv4515" $restorepoint = Get-VBRRestorePoint -Backup $backup $disks = Get-VBRViVirtualDevice -RestorePoint $restorepoint[3] $mappingrule = New-VBRViVirtualDeviceMappingRule -SourceVirtualDevice $disks $server = Get-VBRServer -Name "WinSrv2073" $datastore = Find-VBRViDatastore -Server $server -Name "LocalStore_0" Set-VBRViVirtualDeviceMappingRule -MappingRule $mappingrule -Datastore $datastore |
Perform the following steps:
- Get the backed-up VM virtual disks:
- Run the Get-VBRBackup cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $backup variable.
- Run the Get-VBRRestorePoint cmdlet. Specify the Backup parameter value. Save the result to the $restorepoint variable.
- Run the Get-VBRViVirtualDevice cmdlet. Specify the RestorePoint parameter value. Save the result to the $disks variable.
The Get-VBRRestorePoint cmdlet will return an array of restore points. Mind the ordinal number of the necessary restore point (in our example, it is the fourth restore session in the array).
- Run the New-VBRViVirtualDeviceMappingRule cmdlet. Specify the SourceVirtualDevice parameter value. Save the result to the $mappingrule variable.
- Get the datastore:
- Run the Get-VBRServer cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $server variable
- Run the Find-VBRViDatastore cmdlet. Specify the Name and Server parameter values. Save the result to the $datastore variable.
- Run the Set-VBRViVirtualDeviceMappingRule cmdlet. Set the $mappingrule variable as the MappingRule parameter value. Set the $datastore variable as the Datastore parameter value.
