Set-DPMProtectionGroup

Set-DPMProtectionGroup

Saves all the actions performed on the protection group on the DPM server.

Syntax

Parameter Set: Default
Set-DPMProtectionGroup [-ProtectionGroup] <ProtectionGroup> [-Async] [-TranslateDSList <Datasource[]> ] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Set-DPMProtectionGroup cmdlet saves all the actions that you performed on the protection group on the System Center 2012 – Data Protection Manager (DPM) server.

Until you run the Set-DPMProtectionGroup cmdlet, the actions that you take on a modifiable protection group or a new protection group exist only in the memory. For example, when you create a protection group, use this cmdlet as the final step in the process.

Use the following sequence of steps to modify a protection group:

-- 1. Get-DPMProtectionGroup
-- 2. Get-DPMModifiableProtectionGroup
-- 3. Perform actions on the protection group
-- 4. Set-DPMProtectionGroup
