Value	Specifies the number of times the backup copy job will copy new restore points.	Int	False	Named	False
Unit	Specifies the period of time for a backup copy job to run: Minute Hour Day	VBRRecoveryPointObjectiveUnit	False	Named	False

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

Output Object

The cmdlet returns the VBRRecoveryPointObjective object that contains settings for backup copy interval of backup copy jobs.

Examples

Modifying Backup Copy Interval

This example shows how to modify the backup copy interval. The backup copy job will run every five hours.

$job = Get-VBRJob -Name "EC2 BCJ 01"

$interval = Get-VBRRecoveryPointObjective -Job $job

$newinterval = Set-VBRRecoveryPointObjective -RecoveryPointObjective $interval -Value 5 -Unit Hour

Perform the following steps:

Run the Get-VBRJob cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $job variable.
Run the Get-VBRRecoveryPointObjective cmdlet. Set the $job variable as the Job parameter value. Save the result to the $interval variable.
Run the Set-VBRRecoveryPointObjective cmdlet. Specify the following settings:

Set the $interval variable as the RecoveryPointObjective parameter value.
Specify the Value parameter value.
Set the Hour value for the Unit parameter.

Save the result to the $newinterval variable to apply the settings to the backup copy job.
