Detailed Description

This cmdlet performs failback from a Cloud Director replica to the production vApp.

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Type	Required	Position	Accept Pipeline Input
RestorePoint	Specifies a restore point of a Cloud Director replica to which you want to perform a fail back.	Accepts the COib object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRRestorePoint cmdlet.	True	Named	True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
DestinationvApp	Specifies the vApp to which you want to perform a fail back.	Accepts the CVcdVappItem object. To get this object, run the Find-VBRvCloudEntity cmdlet.	True	Named	False
OrganizationvDC	Specifies the organization VDC to which you want to perform a fail back.	Accepts the CVcdOrganizationVdcItem object. To get this object, run the Find-VBRvCloudEntity cmdlet.	False	Named	False
Complete	Defines that the cmdlet will switch the VDC replica from the failback state to the permanent failback state.	SwitchParameter	False	Named	False
Retry	Defines that if failback does not complete successfully, Veeam Backup & Replication will start to perform failback to a VDC replica again. If you do not specify this parameter, the cmdlet will not start to perform failover to a VDC replica if some VMs are in the incomplete state.	SwitchParameter	False	Named	False
SwitchToProduction	Defines that the cmdlet will switch the VDC replica from the ready to switch state to the failback state.	SwitchParameter	False	Named	False
SwitchingSchedule	Specifies a switching schedule for VDC replica. The cmdlet will switch the replica to the production VM according to this schedule.	Accepts the VBRFailbackSwitchingSchedule object. To create this object, run the New-VBRFailbackSwitchingSchedule cmdlet.	False	Named	False
Reason	Specifies the reason for performing failback.	String	False	Named	False
PowerOn	Defines that the cmdlet will power on the production VM after performing failback. If you do not provide this parameter, you will need to power the VM on manually.	SwitchParameter	False	Named	False
DestinationVAppName	Specifies a name of a new vApp. The cmdlet will create a vApp with this name and will perform failback to this vApp.	String	False	Named	False
StoragePolicy	Specify the storage policy that you want to apply to the production VMs after performing failback.	Accepts the CVcdOrgVdcStorageProfile object. To get this object, run the Find-VBRvCloudEntity cmdlet.	False	Named	False
ReplicaNetwork	Specifies an array of the VDC replica networks for Cloud Director replica mapping.	Accepts the IVBRServerNetworkInfo[] object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRVCDOrgVdcNetworkInfo cmdlet.	False	Named	False
DestinationNetwork	Specifies an array of the target VDC replica networks for Cloud Director replica mapping.	Accepts the IVBRServerNetworkInfo[] object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRVCDOrgVdcNetworkInfo cmdlet.	False	Named	False
DRSiteProxy	For failback to a different location. Specifies an array of disaster recovery site networks. The cmdlet will map the replica to these networks.	Accepts the VBRCDPProxy[] object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRCDPProxy cmdlet.	False	Named	False
ProdSiteProxy	For failback to a different location. Specifies an array of production site networks. The cmdlet will map the replica to these networks.	Accepts the VBRCDPProxy[] object. To get this object, run the Get-VBRCDPProxy cmdlet.	False	Named	False
RunAsync	Defines that the command returns immediately without waiting for the task to complete. Note: This parameter cannot be used if you set the failback switch schedule by running the New-VBRFailbackSwitchingSchedule cmdlet to the Auto or Scheduled types.	SwitchParameter	False	Named	False
Force	Defines that the cmdlet will perform failover without showing warnings in the PowerShell console.	SwitchParameter	False	Named	False
WhatIf	Defines that the cmdlet will write a message that describes the effects of running the cmdlet without actually performing any action.	SwitchParameter	False	Named	False
Confirm	Defines that the cmdlet will display a prompt that asks if you want to continue running the command.	SwitchParameter	False	Named	False

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

Examples

Start-VBRvCDReplicaFailback Example 1. Performing Failback from Cloud Director Replica to Original Location

This example shows how to perform failback of the VirginiaVMs Cloud Director replica to the original VM.

$restorepoint = Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name "VirginiaVMs"
