Description

The Complete-VMFailover cmdlet completes a virtual machine's failover process on the Replica server. The recovery point, on which the virtual machine is failed over, is committed and all other recovery points are removed. Failover cannot be canceled after the recovery points are removed.

Examples

Example 1

PS C:\> Complete-VMFailover VM01

This command completes the failover process of a virtual machine named VM01, thereby deleting all other recovery points on the server.

Example 2

PS C:\> Complete-VMFailover *

This command completes the failover process of all virtual machines on the local host for which the failover process has been started.
