Detailed Description

This cmdlet creates Cloud Director tenant accounts.

To set up replica resources for Cloud Director tenant accounts, you must perform the following steps:

Create the organization VDC in your VMware Cloud Director.
Allocate the required organization VDC for the Cloud Director tenant account.

Run the New-VBRvCDOrganizationvDCOptions cmdlet to specify the organization VDC that you want to allocate to the Cloud Director tenant.

Run the New-VBRvCDReplicationResource cmdlet to specify the replication resource settings.

Important

You cannot specify the name and the password for Cloud Director tenant accounts.

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Type	Required	Position	Accept Pipeline Input
vCDOrganization	Specifies a Cloud Director organization. Note: you must configure the Cloud Director organization in Cloud Director beforehand.	Accepts the CVcdOrganizationItem object. To get this object, run the Find-VBRvCloudEntity cmdlet.	True	Named	False
Description	Specifies a description of the Cloud Director tenant account.	String	False	Named	False
Resources	Specifies an array of backup resource quotas that you want to allocate to the Cloud Director tenant accounts. Note: You must set the Resources or the vCDReplicationResource parameter, or a combination of both, to create a Cloud Director tenant account. When you assign multiple resource quotas to one Cloud Director tenant account, the resource quotas must have unique Repository Friendly Names and they must use different repositories.	Accepts the VBRCloudTenantResource[] object. To get this object, run the New-VBRCloudTenantResource cmdlet.	False	Named	False
EnableThrottling	Enables network throttling to set the bandwidth limitations. Use the ThrottlingValue and ThrottlingUnit parameters to set the maximum value.	SwitchParameter	False	Named	False
ThrottlingValue	For the EnableThrottling option. Specifies the maximum bandwidth value in Mbps for transferring the tenant data to the SP side.	Decimal	False	Named	False
ThrottlingUnit	For the EnableThrottling option. Specifies measure units for the bandwidth value. You can select either of the following: MbitPerSec MbytePerSec KbytePerSec Default: MbytePerSec.	VBRSpeedUnit	False	Named	False
MaxConcurrentTask	Specifies the maximum number of tasks that the Cloud Director tenant account can process in parallel. The number of tasks is the number of VM disks processed by one job targeted at the cloud repository or cloud host.	Int32	False	Named	False
EnableBackupProtection	Enables protection for the tenant's backups from complete removal. If you provide this parameter, the tenant's deleted backups will be placed to the recycle bin on the service provider's side. The backups will be kept in the bin for the specified protection period. When this period ends, the backups are removed permanently. To specify the protection period, use the BackupProtectionPeriod parameter.	SwitchParameter	False	Named	False
BackupProtectionPeriod	For the EnableBackupProtection parameter. Specifies the number of days to keep the tenant's deleted backups on the service provider side. Can be set to 1-99.	Int32	False	Named	False
vCDReplicationResource	Specifies Cloud Director replication resources, that you want to allocate to the Cloud Director tenant accounts.	Accepts the VBRvCDReplicationResource object. To get this object, run the New-VBRvCDReplicationResource cmdlet.	False	Named	False
GatewaySelectionType	Specifies the type of the cloud gateway that you want to assign to Cloud Director tenant accounts. StandaloneGateways — use this option to transfer data through a cloud gateway that is not added to a cloud gateway pool. GatewayPool — use this option to transfer data through a cloud gateway pool.	VBRCloudGatewaySelectionType	False	Named	False
GatewayPool	Specifies a gateway pool. Veeam Backup & Replication will route data through the specified gateway pool.	Accepts the VBRCloudGatewayPool object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRCloudGatewayPool cmdlet.	False	Named	False
EnableGatewayFailover	Enables the gateway pool failover option. In case the gateway pool is down, Veeam Backup & Replication will transfer data through a gateway, that is not added to any gateway pool.	SwitchParameter	False	Named	False
EnableLeaseExpiration	Defines that a Cloud Director tenant account must use lease expiration settings. Use the LeaseExpirationDate parameter to set the lease expiration date.	SwitchParameter	False	Named	False

This cmdlet supports Microsoft PowerShell common parameters. For more information on common parameters, see Microsoft Docs.

Examples

Creating Cloud Director Tenant Account with Replication Resources

This example shows how to create a Cloud Director tenant account with the replication resources.

$orgvdc = Find-VBRvCloudEntity -OrganizationVdc -Name "VDC 01"

$dco = New-VBRvCDOrganizationvDCOptions -OrganizationvDC $orgvdc

$org = Find-VBRvCloudEntity -Organization -Name "Organization 05"

$replicas = New-VBRvCDReplicationResource -OrganizationvDCOptions $dco

Add-VBRvCDCloudTenant -vCDOrganization $org -vCDReplicationResource $replicas

Perform the following steps:

Run the Find-VBRvCloudEntity cmdlet. Provide the OrganizationVdc parameter. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $orgvdc variable.
Run the New-VBRvCDOrganizationvDCOptions cmdlet. Set the $orgvdc variable as the OrganizationvDC parameter value. Save the result to the $dco variable.
Run the Find-VBRvCloudEntity cmdlet. Provide the Organization parameter. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $org variable.
Run the New-VBRvCDReplicationResource cmdlet. Set the $dco variable as the OrganizationvDCOptions parameter value. Save the result to the $replicas variable.
Run the Add-VBRvCDCloudTenant cmdlet. Set the $org variable as the vCDOrganization parameter value. Set the $replicas variable as the vCDReplicationResource parameter value.
