Examples

New-VBRStorageProtocolPolicy Example 1. Creating iSCSI Protocol Policy

This command creates an iSCSI protocol policy. Save it to the $protocol variable for future needs.

$protocol = New-VBRStorageProtocolPolicy -iSCSI

New-VBRStorageProtocolPolicy Example 2. Changing iSCSI Protocol for HPE 3PAR StoreServ Storage

This example shows how to change the protocol over which the HPE 3PAR StoreServ storage is connected.

$storage = Get-HP3Storage -Name "HPE 3PAR StoreServ"

$protocol = New-VBRStorageProtocolPolicy -iSCSI

Set-HP3Storage -Host $storage -ProtocolPolicy $protocol

Perform the following steps:

Run the Get-HP3Storage cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $storage variable.
Run the New-VBRStorageProtocolPolicy cmdlet. Provide the iSCSI parameter. Save the result to the $protocol variable.
Run the Set-HP3Storage cmdlet. Set the $storage variable as the Host parameter value. Set the $protocol variable as the ProtocolPolicy parameter value.

New-VBRStorageProtocolPolicy Example 3. Setting Protocol Policy for InterSystems IRIS Application Backup

This example shows how to set an iSCSI protocol policy for a Universal Storage API integrated system and enable InterSystems IRIS application backup.

$storage = Get-StoragePluginHost -Name "IBM Spectrum"

$protocol = New-VBRStorageProtocolPolicy -iSCSI

Set-StoragePluginHost -Host $storage -EnableApplicationBackup -ApplicationProtocolPolicy $protocol

Perform the following steps:

Run the Get-StoragePluginHost cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $storage variable.
Run the New-VBRStorageProtocolPolicy cmdlet. Provide the iSCSI parameter. Save the result to the $protocol variable.
Run the Set-StoragePluginHost cmdlet. Set the $storage variable as the Host parameter value. Provide the EnableApplicationBackup parameter. Set the $protocol variable as the ApplicationProtocolPolicy parameter value.
