## Examples

::: example
### Example 1. Creating Backup Copy Job for Specific HPE StoreOnce Repositories

This example shows how to create a backup copy job that will copy data from the source `HPE StoreOnce 1` repository to the target `HPE StoreOnce 2` repository.

```
$source = Get-VBRBackupRepository -Name "HPE StoreOnce 1"
$target = Get-VBRBackupRepository -Name "HPE StoreOnce 2"
Add-VBRCatalystCopyJob -Name "StoreOnce copy job" -SourceRepository $source -TargetRepository $target -Description "Copy job for StoreOnce repository"
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBRBackupRepository`](get-vbrbackuprepository.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$source` variable.
2. Run the [`Get-VBRBackupRepository`](get-vbrbackuprepository.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$target` variable.
3. Run the `Add-VBRCatalystCopyJob` cmdlet. Specify the following settings:

   - Specify the `Name` parameter value.
   - Set the `$source` variable as the `SourceRepository` parameter value.
   - Set the `$target` variable as the `TargetRepository` parameter value.
   - Specify the `Description` parameter value.

### Example 2. Creating Backup Copy Job for List of HPE StoreOnce Repositories

This example shows how to create a backup copy job that will copy data from a list of source repositories to a list of the target repositories. Veeam Backup & Replication will copy data according to the following scheme:

- From `HPE StoreOnce 1` to `HPE StoreOnce 4`
- From `HPE StoreOnce 2` to `HPE StoreOnce 5`
- From `HPE StoreOnce 3` to `HPE StoreOnce 6`

```
$source = Get-VBRBackupRepository -Name "HPE StoreOnce 1", "HPE StoreOnce 2", "HPE StoreOnce 3"
$target = Get-VBRBackupRepository -Name "HPE StoreOnce 4", "HPE StoreOnce 5", "HPE StoreOnce 6"
Add-VBRCatalystCopyJob -Name "StoreOnce copy job" -SourceRepository $source -TargetRepository $target -Description "Copy job for StoreOnce repository"
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBRBackupRepository`](get-vbrbackuprepository.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value.

   Save the result to the `$source` variable. The [`Get-VBRBackupRepository`](get-vbrbackuprepository.md) cmdlet will return an array of source HPE StoreOnce repositories.

2. Run the [`Get-VBRBackupRepository`](get-vbrbackuprepository.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$target` variable.

   The [`Get-VBRBackupRepository`](get-vbrbackuprepository.md) cmdlet will return an array of target HPE StoreOnce repositories.

3. Run the `Add-VBRCatalystCopyJob` cmdlet. Specify the following settings:

   - Specify the `Name` parameter value.
   - Set the `$source` variable as the `SourceRepository` parameter value.
   - Set the `$target` variable as the `TargetRepository` parameter value.
   - Specify the `Description` parameter value.

### Example 3. Creating Backup Copy Job for HPE StoreOnce Repository with Backup Window Options

This example shows how to create a backup copy job for an HPE StoreOnce repository. The job will run during the following period of time:

- From 22:00 to 22:59 on Friday
- From 22:00 to 22:59 on Saturday

```
$source = Get-VBRBackupRepository -Name "HPE SO 05"
$target = Get-VBRBackupRepository -Name "HPE SO 07"
$windowoptions = New-VBRBackupWindowOptions -FromDay Friday -FromHour 22 -ToDay Saturday -ToHour 22 -Enabled
Add-VBRCatalystCopyJob -Name "StoreOnce copy job" -SourceRepository $source -TargetRepository $target -Description "Copy job for StoreOnce repository" -BackupWindowOptions $windowoptions
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBRBackupRepository`](get-vbrbackuprepository.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$source` variable.
2. Run the [`Get-VBRBackupRepository`](get-vbrbackuprepository.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$target` variable.
3. Run the [`New-VBRBackupWindowOptions`](new-vbrbackupwindowoptions.md) cmdlet. Specify the necessary parameters. Save the result to the `$windowoptions` variable.
4. Run the `Add-VBRCatalystCopyJob` cmdlet. Specify the following settings:

   - Specify the `Name` parameter value.
   - Set the `$source` variable as the `SourceRepository` parameter value.
   - Set the `$target` variable as the `TargetRepository` parameter value.
   - Specify the `Description`  parameter value.
   - Set the `$windowoptions` variable as the `BackupWindowOptions` parameter value.
