Syntax

This cmdlet provides cmdlet sets that allow you to:

  • Starts to perform failback from a vCD replica to the original vApp.

Start-VBRvCDReplicaFailback -RestorePoint <COib> [-Complete] [-Retry] [-SwitchToProduction] [-SwitchingSchedule <VBRFailbackSwitchingSchedule>] [-Reason <string>] [-PowerOn] [-DRSiteProxy <CViProxy[]>] [-ProdSiteProxy <CViProxy[]>] [-RunAsync] [-Force] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm]  [<CommonParameters>]

  • Starts to perform failback from a vCD replica to the original vApp that is restored in a different location.

Start-VBRvCDReplicaFailback -RestorePoint <COib> -DestinationvApp <CVcdVappItem> [-Complete] [-Retry] [-SwitchToProduction] [-SwitchingSchedule <VBRFailbackSwitchingSchedule>] [-Reason <string>] [-PowerOn] [-DRSiteProxy <CViProxy[]>] [-ProdSiteProxy <CViProxy[]>] [-RunAsync] [-Force] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

  • Starts to perform failback from a vCD replica to the production vApp in a different location or with different settings.

True

Named

False

OrganizationvDC

Specifies the organization VDC to which you want to perform a fail back.

Accepts the CVcdOrganizationVdcItem object. To get this object, run the Find-VBRvCloudEntity cmdlet.

False

Named

False

Complete

Defines that the cmdlet will switch the vDC replica from the failback state to the permantnet failback state.

SwitchParameter

False

Named

False

Retry

Defines that if failback does not complete successfully, Veeam Backup & Replication will start to perform failback to a vDC replica again.

If you do not specify this parameter, the cmdlet will not start to perform failover to a vDC replica if some VMs are in the incomplete state.

SwitchParameter

False

Named

False

SwitchToProduction

Defines that the cmdlet will switch the vDC replica from the ready to switch state to the failback state.

SwitchParameter

False

Named

False

SwitchingSchedule

Specifies a switching schedule for vDC replica. The cmdlet will switch the replica to the production VM according to this schedule.

Accepts the VBRFailbackSwitchingSchedule object. To create this object, run the New-VBRFailbackSwitchingSchedule cmdlet.

False

Named

False

Reason

Specifies the reason for performing failback.

String

False

Named

False

PowerOn

Defines that the cmdlet will power on the production VM after performing failback. If you do not provide this parameter, you will need to power the VM on manually.

SwitchParameter

False

Named

False

DestinationVAppName

Specifies a name of a new vApp. The cmdlet will create a vApp with this name and will perform failback to this vApp.

String

False

Named

False

StoragePolicy

Specify the storage policy that you want to apply to the production VMs after performing failback.

Accepts the CVcdOrgVdcStorageProfile object. To get this object, run the Find-VBRvCloudEntity cmdlet.

False

Named

False

ReplicaNetwork

Specifies an array of the vDC replica networks for vCD replica mapping.

Accepts the IVBRServerNetworkInfo[] object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRVCDOrgVdcNetworkInfo cmdlet.

False

Named

False

DestinationNetwork

Specifies an array of the target vDC replica networks for vCD replica mapping.

Accepts the IVBRServerNetworkInfo[] object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRVCDOrgVdcNetworkInfo cmdlet.

False

Named

False

DRSiteProxy

For failback to a different location.

Specifies an array of disaster recovery site networks. The cmdlet will map the replica to these networks.

Accepts the VBRCDPProxy[] object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRCDPProxy cmdlet.

False

Named

False

ProdSiteProxy

Specifies an array of production site networks. The cmdlet will map the replica to these networks.

Accepts the VBRCDPProxy[] object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRCDPProxy cmdlet.

False

Named

False

RunAsync

Defines that the command returns immediately without waiting for the task to complete.

Note: This parameter cannot be used if you set the failback switch  schedule by running the New-VBRFailbackSwitchingSchedule cmdlet to the Auto or Scheduled types.
