Detailed Description

This cmdlet modifies an existing Hyper-V cloud replication job. To modify settings, you need to specify new values for the necessary parameters. The parameters that you omit will remain unchanged.

Note

Consider the following:

  • The cmdlet will not run if the geographic location of the VMs added to the job and the target cloud host location do not match. If you still want to run the cmdlet, use the Force parameter.
  • To modify settings, specify new values for the necessary parameters. After you run this cmdlet, the previous settings will be rewritten with new values. The parameters that you omit will remain unchanged.

SwitchParameter

False

Named

False

SourceNetwork

Used to set the source network for the EnableNetworkMapping parameter.

Specifies the production network to which VMs added to the job are connected.

Note: the number of the source and the target networks must be the same.

Accepts the VBRHvServerNetworkInfo[] object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRHvServerNetworkInfo cmdlet.

False

Named

False

TargetNetwork

Used to set the target network for the EnableNetworkMapping parameter.

Specifies the network in the DR site to which VM replicas must be connected.

Note: the number of the source and the target networks must be the same.

Accepts the VBRCloudServerNetworkInfo[] object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRCloudServerNetworkInfo cmdlet.

False

Named

False

SourceProxy

Specifies the source proxy that will be used by the job.

Default: Automatic selection.

Accepts the CHvProxy[] object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRHvProxy cmdlet.

False

Named

False

UseWANAccelerator

Defines that the data must be transferred via WAN accelerators.

Use the SourceWANAccelerator parameter to set the WAN accelerator on the source side.

SwitchParameter

False

Named

False

SourceWANAccelerator

Specifies the WAN accelerator configured in the source site that will be used for data transfer.

Note: you can set the source WAN accelerator only if the cloud provider has a target WAN accelerator configured.

Accepts the CWanAccelerator object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRWANAccelerator cmdlet.

False

Named

False

EnableSeeding

Enables replica seeding option for the replication job.

False

Named

True (ByValue,
ByProperty
Name)

ReplicaVM

For replica mapping.

Specifies the VM on the DR site you want to use as the replication target. The replication job will map the production VM to this VM.

Use the OriginalVM parameter to specify the production VM.

Examples

Changing Cloud Replica Job Settings

This example shows how to apply custom settings to a cloud replica job.

$job = Get-VBRJob –Name “Hv Cloud Replica Job”

$vms = Find-VBRHvEntity -Name fileserver*

$cloudServer = Get-VBRCloudServer -Name 104.45.95.227

$NewCloudDatastore = Get-VBRCloudDatastore -CloudServer $cloudServer –Name “KLMDatastore”

Set-VBRHvCloudReplicaJob –Job $job -Entity $vms –Datastore $NewCloudDatastore

Perform the following steps:

  1. Run the Get-VBRJob cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $job variable.
  2. Run the Find-VBRHvEntity cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $vms variable.
  3. Run the Get-VBRCloudServer cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the server to the $cloudServer variable.
  4. Run the Get-VBRCloudDatastore cmdlet. Set the $cloudServer variable as the CloudServer parameter value. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the datastore to the $NewCloudDatastore variable.
  5. Run the Set-VBRHvCloudReplicaJob cmdlet. Specify the following settings:
  • Set the $job variable as Job parameter value.
  • Set the $vms variable as Entity parameter value.
  • Set the $NewCloudDatastore variable as Datastore parameter value.
