## Examples

::: example
### Getting All Restore Points for a Database

This command returns all restore points for a specific backed-up Microsoft SQL Server database running on Amazon RDS.

```
$session = Get-VESQLRDSRestoreSession
$database = Get-VESQLRDSDatabase -Session $session[0] -Name "location1"
$restorepoint = Get-VESQLRDSRestorePoint -Database $database
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VESQLRDSRestoreSession`](get-vesqlrdsrestoresession.md) cmdlet. Save the result to the `$session` variable.

   The cmdlet will return an array of active restore sessions. Note the ordinal number of the necessary restore session (in this example, it is the first restore session in the array).

2. Run the [`Get-VESQLRDSDatabase`](get-vesqlrdsdatabase.md) cmdlet. Set the `$session` variable as the `Session` parameter value and select the necessary restore session. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$database` variable.
3. Run the `Get-VESQLRDSRestorePoint` cmdlet. Set the `$database` variable as the `Database` parameter value. Save the result to the `$restorepoint` variable to use it with other cmdlets.
