Examples
Example 1: Create a Network Controller backup
$Credential = Get-Credential
$BackupTime = (get-date).ToString("s").Replace(":", "_")
$BackupProperties = New-Object Microsoft.Windows.NetworkController.NetworkControllerBackupProperties
$BackupProperties.BackupPath = "C:\backups\NetworkController\$BackupTime"
New-NetworkControllerBackup -ResourceId $BackupTime -Properties $BackupProperties -ConnectionURI https://networkcontroller -Credential $CredentialThis example creates a backup of the Network Controller database.
The first command gets the credential for the current environment and then saves it in $Credential.
The second command creates a string version of the current time to use as the location of the backup.
The third command creates a NetworkControllerBackupProperties object.
The fourth command adds a path for the backup to the properties object.
The fifth command creates the backup. The command uses the specified connection URI and the items created in the previous commands.
Parameters
-CertificateThumbprint
Specifies the digital public key X.509 certificate of a user account that has permission to perform this action. Specify this parameter only if you run this cmdlet on a computer that is not part of the network controller cluster.
