Detailed Description
This cmdlet allows you to undo the replica failback started with Start-VBRViReplicaFailback or Start-VBRHvReplicaFailback.
If you tried to fail back to the production VM but was unable to, because i.e. it was non-functional or corrupted, you can undo the failback and return to the working replica.
Parameters

<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports Microsoft PowerShell common parameters. For more information about common parameters, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=113216.
Example 1
This command stops failback from the replica VM named "WebServer_replica". The restore point is obtained with Get-VBRRestorePoint and piped down. The restore points of the VM are filtered with Sort-Object method by the "creationtime" property to get the most recent one. The RunAsync parameter is set to bring the process to the background.
PS C:\PS> Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name "WebServer_replica" | Sort-Object $_.creationtime -Descending | Select -First 1 | Stop-VBRViReplicaFailback -RunAsync |
Example 2
This command stops failback from the replica VM named "WebServer_replica". The restorepoint to revert to is represented by the $"WebServer_replica restorepoint" variable. The restore point is obtained with Get-VBRRestorePoint and assigned to the variable beforehand. The RunAsync parameter is set to bring the process to the background.
