Short Description

Defines the target location settings for universal CDP policies.

Applies to

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

Syntax

This cmdlet provides parameter sets that allow you to:

Target universal CDP policies to a VMware vSphere cluster.

New-VBRUniversalCDPViDestination -TargetCluster <CViClusterItem> [-ResourcePool <CViResourcePoolItem>] [-Folder <CViFolderItem>] [-Datastore <VBRViDatastoreBase>] [-StoragePolicy <VBRViStoragePolicy>] [-DiskType {Source | Thick | Thin | ThickEagerZeroed | Mixed}] [<CommonParameters>]

Target universal CDP policies to an ESXi host.

New-VBRUniversalCDPViDestination -TargetHost <CEsxItem> [-ResourcePool <CViResourcePoolItem>] [-Folder <CViFolderItem>] [-Datastore <VBRViDatastoreBase>] [-StoragePolicy <VBRViStoragePolicy>] [-DiskType {Source | Thick | Thin | ThickEagerZeroed | Mixed}] [<CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

This cmdlet defines the IUniversalCdpDestination object that contains the target location settings for universal CDP policies.

The target ESXi host or cluster must have the I/O CDP filter installed. For more information oh how to install the filter, see Install-VBRCDPFilter.

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Type	Required	Position	Accept Pipeline Input
TargetCluster	Specifies a target cluster. The cmdlet will replicate workloads to this cluster.	Accepts the CViClusterItem object. To get this object, run the Find-VBRViEntity cmdlet.	True	Named	False
TargetHost	Specifies a target ESXi host. The cmdlet will replicate workloads to this ESXi host.	Accepts the CEsxItem object. To get this object, run the Find-VBRViEntity cmdlet.	True	Named	False
ResourcePool	Specifies the resource pool to which you want to replicate workloads.	Accepts the CViResourcePoolItem object. To get this object, run the Find-VBRViEntity cmdlet.	False	Named	False
Folder	Specifies the folder to which you want to replicate workloads.	Accepts the CViFolderItem object. To get this object, run the Find-VBRViEntity cmdlet.	False	Named	False
Datastore	Specifies the datastore to which you want to replicate workloads.	Accepts the VBRViDatastoreBase object. To get this object, run the Find-VBRViDatastore cmdlet.	False	Named	False
StoragePolicy	Specifies the VMware storage policy that must be applied to the replica virtual disks.	Accepts the VBRViStoragePolicy object. To get this object, run the Find-VBRViStoragePolicy cmdlet.	False	Named	False
DiskType	Specifies the type of disks for replicas: Source: the restored replica disks will be the same format as source. Thick: the restored replica disks will be thick. Thin: the restored replica disks will be thin. ThickEagerZeroed: the restored replica disks will be thick eager zeroed.	VBRDiskCreationMode	False	Named	False

This cmdlet supports Microsoft PowerShell common parameters. For more information on common parameters, see Microsoft Docs.

Output Object

The cmdlet returns the VBRUniversalCDPViDestination object that defines the target location settings for universal CDP policies.

Examples

Example 1. Creating Target Location Settings for Universal CDP Policy (Cluster)

This example shows how to create target location settings for the universal CDP policy. The target location is a cluster.

$cluster = Find-VBRViEntity -Name "CDP cluster"

$pool = Find-VBRViEntity -ResourcePools -Name Rep-Org-Ti*

$destination = New-VBRUniversalCDPViDestination -TargetCluster $cluster -ResourcePool $pool

Perform the following steps:

Run the Find-VBRViEntity cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $cluster variable.
Run the Find-VBRViEntity cmdlet. Specify the ResourcePools and Name parameter values. Save the result to the $pool variable.
Run the New-VBRUniversalCDPViDestination cmdlet. Set the $cluster variable as the TargetCluster parameter value. Set the $pool variable as the ResourcePool parameter value. Save the result to the $destination variable.

Example 2. Creating Target Location Settings for Universal CDP Policy (Host)

This example shows how to create target location settings for the universal CDP policy. The target location is an ESXi host.

$server = Find-VBRViEntity -Name "prgtwesx01-virt.tech.local"

$destination = New-VBRUniversalCDPViDestination -TargetHost $server -DiskType "Thin"

Perform the following steps:

Run the Find-VBRViEntity cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $host variable.
Run the New-VBRUniversalCDPViDestination cmdlet. Set the $server variable as the TargetHost parameter value. Specify the DiskType parameter value. Save the result to the $destination variable.
