# Set-StoragePluginHost

## Short Description
Modifies settings of Universal Storage API integrated systems.

**Platform**: VMware

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

**Storage System**: IBM Spectrum Virtualize, INFINIDAT InfiniBox, Pure Storage

## Syntax
```

```

## Detailed Description
This cmdlet modifies settings of Universal Storage API storage systems. When you modify storage system settings, the cmdlet automatically rescans storage systems.

::: note

To modify settings, specify new values for the necessary parameters. The cmdlet will overwrite the previous parameter values with new values. The parameters that you omit will remain unchanged.

:::

::: tip

You can specify the scope of volumes that you want to rescan with the `VBRVolumeScanType` parameter.

Run the [`Get-StoragePluginInfrastructureVolume`](get-storageplugininfrastructurevolume.md) cmdlet to get an array of volumes from Universal Storage API integrated systems.

`<CommonParameters>`

This cmdlet supports Microsoft PowerShell common parameters. For more information on common parameters, see [ Microsoft Docs](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_commonparameters?view=powershell-7).

## Examples

::: example
### Example 1. Assigning New Backup Proxy to Storage System

This example shows how to assign a new backup proxy to a storage system.

```
$storage = Get-StoragePluginHost -Name "IBM Spectrum"
$proxy = Get-VBRViProxy -Name "LocalProxy"
Set-StoragePluginHost -Host $storage -Proxy $proxy
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-StoragePluginHost`](get-storagepluginhost.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$storage` variable.
2. Run the [`Get-VBRViProxy`](get-vbrviproxy.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$proxy` variable.
3. Run the `Set-StoragePluginHost` cmdlet. Set the `$storage` variable as the `Host` parameter value. Set the `$proxy` variable as the `Proxy` parameter value.

::: example
### Example 2. Excluding Volumes from Rescan

This example shows how to exclude volumes from of a Universal Storage API integrated system from rescan.

```
$storage = Get-VNXHost -Name "VNX Storage"
$volumes = Get-StoragePluginInfrastructureVolume -Name "ISCSI Volume4", "ISCSI Volume5", "NFS Volume1"
Set-StoragePluginHost -Host $storage -VolumeScanType Exclude -ExcludedVolume $volumes
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VNXHost`](get-vnxhost.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$storage` variable.
2. Run the [`Get-StoragePluginInfrastructureVolume`](get-storageplugininfrastructurevolume.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$volumes` variable.
3. Run the `Set-StoragePluginHost` cmdlet. Set the `$storage` variable as the `Host` parameter value. Set the `Exclude` option for the `VolumeScanType` parameter. Set the `$volumes` variable as the `ExcludedVolume` parameter value.

:::

::: example
### Example 3. Rescanning All Volumes Added to Universal Storage API Integrated System

This example shows how to rescan all volumes added to a Universal Storage API integrated system.

```
$storage = Get-VNXHost -Name "VNX Storage"
$volumes = Get-StoragePluginInfrastructureVolume -Host $storage
Set-StoragePluginHost -Host $storage -VolumeScanType Include -IncludedVolume $volumes
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VNXHost`](get-vnxhost.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$storage` variable.
2. Run the [`Get-StoragePluginInfrastructureVolume`](get-storageplugininfrastructurevolume.md) cmdlet. Set the `$storage` variable as the `Host` parameter value. Save the result to the `$volumes` variable.
3. Run the `Set-StoragePluginHost` cmdlet. Set the `$storage` variable as the `Host` parameter value. Set the `Include` option for the `VolumeScanType` parameter. Set the `$volumes` variable as the `Included` parameter value.

::: example
### Example 4. Enabling InterSystems IRIS Application Backup

This example shows how to enable InterSystems IRIS application backup for a Universal Storage API integrated system.

```
$storage = Get-StoragePluginHost -Name "IBM Spectrum"
$protocol = New-VBRStorageProtocolPolicy -iSCSI
Set-StoragePluginHost -Host $storage -EnableApplicationBackup -ApplicationProtocolPolicy $protocol
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-StoragePluginHost`](get-storagepluginhost.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$storage` variable.
2. Run the [`New-VBRStorageProtocolPolicy`](new-vbrstorageprotocolpolicy.md) cmdlet. Provide the iSCSI parameter. Save the result to the `$protocol` variable.
3. 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.
