This cmdlet provides parameter sets that allow you to:
- Get all collections in a particular database.
Get-VEMDBCollection [-Database] <VEMDBDatabase> [-Name <String[]>] [<CommonParameters>] |
- Get all collections in the restore point.
Get-VEMDBCollection [-Session] <VEMDBRestoreSession> [-Name <String[]>] [<CommonParameters>] |
This cmdlet returns an array of backed-up MongoDB collections. After you get the backed-up collections, you can use the New-VEMDBCollectionRestoreOptions cmdlet to specify the required restore options.
Parameter | Description | Type | Required | Position | Accept Pipeline Input |
|---|
Session | Specifies a restore session initiated to perform operations with MongoDB data. | Accepts the VEMDBRestoreSession object. To get this object, run the Get-VEMDBRestoreSession cmdlet. | True | 0 | True (ByValue) |
Database | Specifies the MongoDB database on which the collections reside. | Accepts the VEMDBDatabase object. To get this object, run the Get-VEMDBDatabase cmdlet. | True | 0 | True (ByValue) |
Name | Specifies an array of names of MongoDB collections. The cmdlet will return an array of collections located on the restore point or the specified database. This parameter accepts wildcard characters. | String[] | 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.
The cmdlet returns the VEMDBCollection[] array that contains backed-up MongoDB collections.
This example shows how to get an array of all MongoDB collections within the specified restore session. $session = Get-VEMDBRestoreSession $collections = Get-VEMDBCollection -Session $session[1] |
Perform the following steps: - Run the Get-VEMDBRestoreSession cmdlet. Save the result to the $session variable.
The cmdlet will return an array of active restore sessions. Note the ordinal number of the necessary restore session (in our example, it is the second restore session in the array). - Run the Get-VEMDBCollection cmdlet. Set the $session variable as the Session parameter value and select the necessary restore session. Save the result to the $collections variable to be able to use it with other cmdlets.

This example shows how to get an array of MongoDB collections with the specified names. $session = Get-VEMDBRestoreSession $collectionnames = @("location1", "location2") $collections = Get-VEMDBCollection -Session $session[1] -Name $collectionnames |
Perform the following steps: - Run the Get-VEMDBRestoreSession cmdlet. Save the result to the $session variable.
The cmdlet will return an array of active restore sessions. Note the ordinal number of the necessary restore session. In our example, it is the second restore session in the array. - Declare the $collectionnames variable. Assign to this variable an array with the names of the necessary MongoDB collections.
- Run the Get-VEMDBCollection cmdlet. Set the $session variable as the Session parameter value and specify the necessary restore session. Set the $collectionnames variable as the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $collections variable to be able to use it with other cmdlets.

This example shows how to get an array of MongoDB collections from a specific database. $session = Get-VEMDBRestoreSession $databases = Get-VEMDBDatabase -Session $session[0] $collections = Get-VEMDBCollection -Database $databases[0] |
Perform the following steps: - Run the Get-VEMDBRestoreSession cmdlet. Save the result to the $session variable.
The cmdlet will return an array of active restore sessions. Note the ordinal number of the necessary restore session (in our example, it is the first restore session in the array). - Run the Get-VEMDBDatabase cmdlet. Set the $session variable as the Session parameter value and select the necessary restore session. Save the result to the $databases variable to be able to use it with other cmdlets.
- Run the Get-VEMDBCollection cmdlet. Set the $databases variable as the Database parameter value and select the necessary database. Save the result to the $collections variable to be able to use it with other cmdlets.
