Examples

This example shows how to exclude a workload from the universal CDP policy processing.

$cdpPolicy = Get-VBRCDPPolicy -Name "Universal CDP Policy"

$group = Get-VBRProtectionGroup -Name "Protection Group CDP"

$workloads = Get-VBRDiscoveredComputer -ProtectionGroup $group

Set-VBRUniversalCDPPolicy -Policy $cdpPolicy -ExcludedObject $workloads[0]

Perform the following steps:

  1. Run the Get-VBRCDPPolicy cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $cdpPolicy variable.
  2. Run the Get-VBRProtectionGroup cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $group variable.
  3. Run the Get-VBRDiscoveredComputer cmdlet. Set the $group variable as the ProtectionGroup parameter value. Save the result to the $workloads variable.
  4. Run the Set-VBRUniversalCDPPolicy cmdlet. Set the $cdpPolicy variable as the Policy parameter value. Set the $workloads[0] variable as the ExcludedObject parameter value.
