Description

The Enable-DPMLibrary cmdlet enables one or more System Center - Data Protection Manager (DPM) libraries. You can use the Disable-DPMLibrary cmdlet to disable a tape library in order to perform maintenance or repairs, and then use this cmdlet to enable it for use.

Examples

Example 1: Enable libraries for a named server

PS C:\>$DpmLibrary = Get-DPMLibrary -DPMServerName "DPMServer07"
PS C:\> Enable-DPMLibrary -DPMLibrary $DpmLibrary

The first command uses the Get-DPMLibrary cmdlet to get the tape libraries for the specified server, and then stores those objects in the $DpmLibrary variable.

The second command enables the libraries stored in $DpmLibrary.
