Detailed Description
This cmdlet creates a new Cloud Director backup copy job. The Cloud Director backup copy job uses a cloud repository as the target.
To add the VMs for the backup copy job, you can add VMs, backups or backup jobs. Veeam will use this data to copy the backups of the needed VM.
You can transfer data in the following ways:
- Using WAN accelerators. This mode is recommended for off-site backups.
To create and run a backup copy job using WAN accelerators you need to have source and target WAN accelerators created. Run the Add-VBRWANAccelerator cmdlet to create a WAN accelerator. WAN optimization is available only in Veeam Backup & Replication Enterprise Plus, Veeam Universal License Edition.
- Directly. With this method, the job sends the data directly to the target backup repository without performing data deduplication. This mode is recommended for on-site backups, or off-site backups using fast connections.
Use an appropriate parameter set for each way.
Note that the backup copy job is created in disabled state. Run the Enable-VBRJob cmdlet to start the job running on the defined schedule.
Parameters
Parameter | Description | Type | Required | Position | Accept |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Name | Specifies the name you want to assign to the backup copy job. | String | False | Named | False |
Entity | Specifies the array of VMs you want to add to the job. | Accepts the IVcdItem[] object. To get this object, run the Find-VBRvCloudEntity cmdlet. | False | Named | True (ByValue, |
Backup | Specifies the array of backups. The cmdlet will add VMs from these backups to the Cloud Director backup copy job. | Accepts the CBackup[] object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRBackup cmdlet. | False | Named | False |
BackupJob | Specifies the array of backup jobs. The cmdlet will add VMs from these backup jobs to the Cloud Director backup copy job. | Accepts the CBackupJob[] object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRJob cmdlet. | False | Named | False |
SourceRepository | Specifies an array of source backup repositories. | Accepts the CBackupRepository[] object. To create this object, run the Get-VBRBackupRepositorycmdlet. | False | Named | False |
Repository | Specifies the target backup repository to where you want to copy the VM data. Default: default backup repository. | Accepts the CBackupRepository object. To create this object, run the Get-VBRBackupRepositorycmdlet. | False | Named | False |
SourceAccelerator | Specifies the WAN accelerator on the source side. If you select the mode using WAN accelerators, the -DirectOperation parameter should be omitted. | Accepts the CWanAccelerator object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRWANAccelerator cmdlet. | True | Named | False |
TargetAccelerator | Specifies the WAN accelerator on the target side. If you select the mode using WAN accelerators, the -DirectOperation parameter should be omitted. | Accepts the CWanAccelerator object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRWANAccelerator cmdlet. | True | Named | False |
Description | Specifies the description of the backup copy job. | String | False | Named | False |
DirectOperation | Enables the direst operation method sending the data directly to the target backup repository without performing data deduplication. If you select the direct operation mode, the -TargetAccelerator and -SourceAccelerator parameters should be omitted. | SwitchParameter | False | Named | False |
Force | Defines that the cmdlet will create a new Cloud Director backup copy job without showing warnings in the PowerShell console. | SwitchParameter | SwitchParameter | False | Named |
EnableImmediateCopy | Defines that the cmdlet will enable the immediate copy mode. If you specify this parameter, Veeam Backup & Replication will copy new restore points and logs as soon as they appear. Otherwise, Veeam Backup & Replication will copy data from backups once per backup copy interval. | SwitchParameter | SwitchParameter | False | Named |
<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports Microsoft PowerShell common parameters. For more information on common parameters, see Microsoft Docs.
