# Set-VBRS3GlacierCompatibleRepository

## Short Description
Modifies settings of S3 compatible object storage with data archiving.

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

## Syntax
```
Set-VBRS3GlacierCompatibleRepository -Repository <VBRS3GlacierCompatibleRepository> [-Name <String>]
 [-Description <String>] [-ArchiverAppliance <CHost>] [-ImmutabilityMode <VBRRepositoryImmutabilityMode>]
 [-ImmutabilityPeriod <Int32>] [-Force] [<CommonParameters>]
```

## Detailed Description
This cmdlet modifies settings of S3 compatible object storage with data archiving that is added to the backup infrastructure.

::: important

Do NOT change the immutability settings for your S3 compatible object storage with data archiving repository, otherwise it may result in data loss in the following scenarios:

- If you provide the `EnableBackupImmutability` parameter to enable immutability for already configured object storage if it was not enabled beforehand.
- If you provide the `EnableBackupImmutability:$False` parameter to disable immutability for already configured object storage if it was enabled beforehand.

## Examples

::: example
### Modifying Settings for S3 Compatible Object Storage with Data Archiving

This example shows how to specify the archiver appliance for the `Atlanta03` S3 compatible object storage with data archiving.

```
$appliance = Get-VBRServer -Name "WinSrv2049"
$repo = Get-VBRArchiveObjectStorageRepository -Name "Atlanta03"
$s3Glacier = Set-VBRS3GlacierCompatibleRepository -Repository $repo -ArchiverAppliance $appliance
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBRServer`](get-vbrserver.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$appliance` variable.
2. Run the [`Get-VBRArchiveObjectStorageRepository`](get-vbrarchiveobjectstoragerepository.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$repo` variable.
3. Run the `Set-VBRS3GlacierCompatibleRepository` cmdlet. Set the `$repo` variable as the `Repository` parameter value. Set the `$appliance` variable as the `ArchiverAppliance` parameter value. Save the result to the `$s3Glacier` variable.
