Detailed Description
This cmdlet compares attributes of backed-up objects with objects on production file share or object storage.
Important |
The cmdlet compares only backup files recovered to a certain restore point. You can not compare all versions of backup files. To recover files to a certain restore point, run the Start-VBRUnstructuredBackupFLRSession cmdlet and provide the RestorePoint parameter. |
Parameters
Parameter | Description | Type | Required | Position | Accept Pipeline Input |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Item | Specifies an array of backed-up objects which attributes you want to compare with objects on production file share or object storage. | Accepts the VBRUnstructuredBackupFLRItem[] object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRUnstructuredBackupFLRItem cmdlet. | True | Named | True (ByPropertyName, ByValue) |
Session | Specifies restore sessions started to recover objects backed-up by file backup jobs and object storage backup jobs. The cmdlet will compare attributes of the objects restored within this session with objects on production file share or object storage. | Accepts the VBRUnstructuredBackupFLRSession object. To create this object, run the Get-VBRUnstructuredBackupFLRSession cmdlet. | True | Named | True (ByPropertyName, ByValue) |
<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports Microsoft PowerShell common parameters. For more information on common parameters, see Microsoft Docs.
Output Object
The cmdlet returns the VBRUnstructuredBackupFLRItemAttributes object that returns information on compare state and attributes of backed-up objects with objects on production file share or object storage.
Examples
Comparing Attributes of Backed-Up Objects with Attributes of Objects on Production Object Storage
This example shows how to compare attributes of backed-up objects with attributes of objects on production object storage.
$restorepoint = Get-VBRUnstructuredBackupRestorePoint -ID "51e4eced-3fce-465b-b516-f24cb5a068a4" $session = Start-VBRUnstructuredBackupFLRSession -RestorePoint $restorepoint[3] $item = Get-VBRUnstructuredBackupFLRItem -Session $session Compare-VBRUnstructuredBackupFLRItemAttributes -Item $item[0,1,4,5] -Session $session |
Perform the following steps:
- Run the Get-VBRUnstructuredBackupRestorePoint cmdlet. Specify the ID parameter value. Save the result to the $restorepoint variable.
The Get-VBRUnstructuredBackupRestorePoint cmdlet will return an array of restore points. Mind the ordinal number of the necessary restore point (in our example, it is the fourth restore point in the array).
- Run the Start-VBRUnstructuredBackupFLRSession cmdlet. Set the $restorepoint[3] variable as the RestorePoint parameter value. Save the result to the $session variable.
- Run the Get-VBRUnstructuredBackupFLRItem cmdlet. Set the $session variable as the Session parameter value. Save the result to the $item variable.
- Run the Compare-VBRUnstructuredBackupFLRItemAttributes cmdlet. Set the $item[0,1,4,5] variable as the Item parameter value. Set the $session variable as the Session parameter value.
