`` 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 ### Stopping Replica Failback This example shows how to stop replica failback. ``` $replica_restorepoint = Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name "WebServer_replica" | Sort-Object $_.creationtime -Descending | Select -First 1 Stop-VBRViReplicaFailback -RestorePoint $replica_restorepoint -PowerOn:$False -RunAsync ``` Perform the following steps: 1. Run the [`Get-VBRRestorePoint`](get-vbrrestorepoint.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Filter the restore points of the VM with the `Sort-Object` method by the `creationtime` property to get the most recent one. Save the result to the `$replica_restorepoint` variable. 2. Run the `Stop-VBRViReplicaFailback` cmdlet. Set the `$replica_restorepoint` variable as the `RestorePoint` parameter value. Set the `PowerOn` parameter to `False` if you want to power on replica VM manually. Provide the `RunAsync` parameter. ::: ## Related Commands [`Get-VBRRestorePoint`](get-vbrrestorepoint.md)
