Short Description

Starts a vApp restore.

Applies to

Platform: VMware

Product Edition: Standard, Enterprise, Enterprise Plus, Veeam Universal License

Syntax

This cmdlet provides parameter sets that allow you to:

  • Start a vApp restore to another location or with different settings.

Start-VBRvCloudRestoreVApp -RestoreParams <CVcdVAppRestoreSettings> [-PowerUp] [-Reason <string>] [-RunAsync]  [<CommonParameters>]

  • Start a vApp restore to the original location.

Start-VBRvCloudRestoreVApp -RestorePoint <COib> [-PowerUp] [-Reason <string>] [-RunAsync]  [<CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

This cmdlet starts a restore session for a selected vApp.

With this cmdlet, you can restore the vApp to the original location or to another location, or with different settings.

To restore the vApp to the original location you only need to indicate the desired restore point. Be careful to specify the restore point of the vApp, not an individual VM which is not a valid value for this cmdlet. Veeam Backup & Replication gets all the information needed for restore from the restore point data.

To run restore to another location or with different settings you need to first create a CVcdVAppRestoreSettings object which unifies all the settings options required for restore. The CVcdVAppRestoreSettings object is created with the help of the New-VBRvCloudVAppRestoreSettings cmdlet. See the New-VBRvCloudVAppRestoreSettings topic for detailed instructions for advanced setup options.

This cmdlet provides two scenarios for each case.
