### Example 1. Modifying Media Pool Options

This example shows how to modify options of the `Weekly` media pool. The new media set name is set to `Weekly Media Set`.

```powershell
$mediapool = Get-VBRTapeMediaPool -Name "Weekly"
$options = Get-VBRTapeMediaPoolOptions -MediaPool $mediapool
$options.MediaSetName = "Weekly Media Set"
Set-VBRTapeMediaPoolOptions -MediaPool $mediapool -Options $options
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBRTapeMediaPool`](get-vbrtapemediapool.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$mediapool` variable.
2. Run the [`Get-VBRTapeMediaPoolOptions`](get-vbrtapemediapooloptions.md) cmdlet. Set the `$mediapool` variable as the `MediaPool` parameter value. Save the result to the `$options` variable.
3. Set the `MediaSetName` property of the `$options` variable to `Weekly Media Set`.
4. Run the `Set-VBRTapeMediaPoolOptions` cmdlet. Specify the following settings:

   - Set the `$mediapool` variable as the `MediaPool` parameter value.
   - Set the `$options` variable as the `Options` parameter value.
