# Test-VBORepository

## Short Description
Verifies the integrity of backed-up Exchange, SharePoint and Teams data in backup repositories.

## Syntax
```
Test-VBORepository -Repository <VBORepository> [-MaxDegreeOfExecutionParallelism <Int32>] [-DetailedOutput] [<CommonParameters>]
```

## Detailed Description
This cmdlet allows you to verify the integrity of Exchange, SharePoint and Teams data backups stored in backup repositories. The cmdlet returns objects stored in a specified backup repository that have certain inconsistencies in their backed-up data.

::: note

The cmdlet verifies backups only. Verification of backup copies stored in a target object storage repository is not supported.

To check backup copies for inconsistencies, run the cmdlet for the source backup repository. The backup copy job will transfer the results of the repair operation to the target object storage repository.

### Verifying Backup Repository Integrity

This example shows how to verify the integrity of the `Repository 05` backup repository.

```
$repository = Get-VBORepository -Name "Repository 05"
Test-VBORepository -Repository $repository
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBORepository`](get-vborepository.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$repository` variable.
2. Run the `Test-VBORepository` cmdlet. Set the `$repository` variable as the `Repository` parameter value.
