# New-VBRManuallyDeployedContainer

## Short Description
Defines a scope of Veeam Agent setup files.

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

## Syntax
```
New-VBRManuallyDeployedContainer -Path <String> [-WindowsPackage] [-MacPackage]
 [-LinuxPackage <VBRProtectionGroupLinuxPackage[]>] [-UnixPackage <VBRProtectionGroupUnixPackage[]>] [<CommonParameters>]
```

## Detailed Description
This cmdlet creates the [`VBRManuallyDeployedContainer`](vbrmanuallydeployedcontainer.md) object. This object defines a scope of Veeam Agent setup files that will be exported to computers in a protection group for pre-installed Veeam Agents after you create the protection group. To learn more about the protection group for pre-installed Veeam Agents, see the [Protection Group Types](https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/agents/protection_groups_types.html?ver=120) section in the Veeam Agent Management Guide.

::: note

Keep in mind that the cmdlet does not define a scope of computers you can add to a protection group for pre-installed Veeam Agents. To learn how to add computers to a protection group for pre-installed Veeam Agents, see the [Deploying Veeam Agents Using Generated Setup Files](https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbr/userguide/agents_deploy_with_generated_file.html?ver=13) section in the Veeam Agent Management Guide.
