This example shows how to retrieve backup files from the Amazon S3 Glacier archive extent of the scale-out backup repository.

$backup = Get-VBRBackup -Name "JOB_2"

$rp = Get-VBRRestorePoint -Backup $backup

Publish-VBRArchiveRestorePoint -RestorePoint $rp[0] -AvailabilityPeriodDays 3 -AmazonS3GlacierRetrievalPolicy Standard

Perform the following steps:

Run the Get-VBRBackup cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $backup variable.
Run the Get-VBRRestorePoint cmdlet. Set the $backup variable as the Backup parameter value. Save the result to the $rp variable.

The Get-VBRRestorePoint cmdlet will return an array of restore points. Mind the ordinal number of the necessary restore point (in our example, it is the first restore point in the array).

Run the Publish-VBRArchiveRestorePoint cmdlet. Specify the following settings:

Set the $rp variable as the RestorePoint parameter value.
Specify the AvailabilityPeriodDays parameter value.
Set the Standard option for the AmazonS3GlacierRetrievalPolicy parameter.

This example shows how to retrieve several restore points from the Amazon S3 Glacier archive storage with the following settings:

Data retrieval will take from 3-5 hours.

The retrieved archive backup files will be available for 5 days.

Get-VBRRestorePoint

$RPIds = @('fdea6323-e018-44ef-abf3-346e0453134b', 'c57cc164-773f-494a-8fb5-aa960cba0f2d', '3898ab90-4419-4bea-b1a2-b13b93170ad3' )

foreach ($restorePointId in $RPIds)

{

$restorepoint = Get-VBRRestorePoint -Id $restorePointId

Publish-VBRArchiveRestorePoint -RestorePoint $restorepoint -AvailabilityPeriodDays 5 -AmazonS3GlacierRetrievalPolicy Standard -RunAsync

}

Perform the following steps:

Get a list of all restore points. Run the Get-VBRRestorePoint cmdlet. The cmdlet will return an array of restore points of tenant backups located in the archive tier. Select the necessary restore points from an array of restore points.
Define an array of restore points. Specify the necessary restore point IDs. Save the result to the $RPIds variable.
Run the Get-VBRCloudTenant cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $tenant variable.
Run the foreach statement.

Set the $restorePointId as a variable and the $RPIds as a collection. With each iteration, the foreach statement will set the $restorePointId variable to the next value in the $RPIds collection.
Specify the Get-VBRRestorePoint and Publish-VBRArchiveRestorePoint cmdlets. With each iteration, the foreach statement will execute these cmdlets.
