Examples

Example 1: Recover a file system

This command creates a recovery option that restores the file system to tsqa.contoso.com and restores the original security settings.

PS C:\> New-DPMRecoveryOption -TargetServer "tsqa.contoso.com" -RecoveryLocation "D:\copytofolder" -FileSystem -AlternateLocation "F:\restore" -OverwriteType Overwrite -RestoreSecurity -RecoveryType Restore

Example 2: Recover a file system by using a replica

The first command opens a connection to a DPM server.

The second command gets the computer named DPMServer01. The DPM protection agent is installed on this server. The command stores the server in the $PServer variable.

The third command gets the list of protected and unprotected data on the protection server in $PServer. The command stores the result in the $PObject variable.

The fourth command gets the libraries associated with the DPM server named DPoreMServer01. The command stores the libraries in the $DpmLibrary variable.

The fifth command gets the recovery point for the data source in $PObject, and then stores that recovery point result in the $RPoint variable.

The sixth command creates a recovery option on a file system data source. The command specifies that data is recovered to the replica on the target server named DPMServer02 from a tape.

PS C:\> Connect-DPMServer -DPMServerName "DPMServer01"
PS C:\> $PServer = Get-DPMProductionServer -DPMServerName "DPMServer01"
PS C:\> $PObjects = Get-DPMDatasource -ProductionServer $PServer
PS C:\> $DpmLibrary = Get-DPMLibrary -DPMServerName "DPoreMServer01"
PS C:\> $RPoint = Get-DPMRecoveryPoint -Datasource $PObjects
PS C:\> $ROption = New-DPMRecoveryOption -Filesystem -RecoverToReplicaFromTape $True -RecoveryLocation DPMReplicaVolume -DPMLibrary $DpmLibrary[0] -TargetServer "DPMServer02" -OverwriteType Overwrite

Example 3: Recover a file system from a replica on tape

The first command gets the protection group on the DPM server named DPMServer02. The command stores the result in the $PGroup variable.

The second command gets the protected and unprotected data on the production server in $PServer. The command stores the results in the $PObject variable.

The third command gets the recovery point for the data source in $PObject, and stores that recovery point in the $RPoint variable.

The fourth command gets the libraries associated with the DPM server named DPoreMServer01. The command stores the libraries in the $DpmLibraries variable.

The fifth command creates a recovery option on a file system data source. The command specifies that data is recovered to the replica on the target server named DPMServer02 from a tape.

The sixth command restores a version of the data source in $RPoint by using the recovery option in $ROption.

PS C:\> $PGroup = Get-DPMProtectionGroup -DPMServerName "DPMServer02"
PS C:\> $PObject = Get-DPMDatasource -ProductionServer $PGroup
PS C:\> $RPoint = Get-DPMRecoveryPoint -Datasource $PObject
PS C:\> $DpmLibraries = Get-DPMLibrary -DPMServerName "DPoreMServer01"
PS C:\> $ROption = New-DPMRecoveryOption -RecoverToReplicaFromTape $True -RecoveryLocation DPMReplicaVolume -FileSystem -TargetServer "DPMServer02" -OverwriteType Overwrite -RecoveryType Recover -DpmLibrary $DpmLibraries
PS C:\> Restore-DPMRecoverableItem -RecoverableItem $RPoint -RecoveryOption $ROption

Example 4: Recover a VMware virtual machine using Original Location Recovery

The first command gets the protection group on the DPM server named DPMServer02. The command stores the result in the $PGroup variable.

The second command gets the protected and unprotected data on the production server in $PServer. The command stores the results in the $PObject variable.

The third command gets the recovery point for the data source in $PObject, and stores that recovery point in the $RPoint variable.

The fourth command creates a recovery option on a VMware virtual machine datasource. The command specifies that data is recovered from replica to VMware virtual machine.

The fifth command restores a version of the data source in $RPoint by using the recovery option in $ROption.

PS C:\> $PGroup = Get-DPMProtectionGroup -DPMServerName "DPMServer02"
PS C:\> $PObject = Get-DPMDatasource -ProductionServer $PGroup
PS C:\> $RPoint = Get-DPMRecoveryPoint -Datasource $PObject
PS C:\> $ROption = New-DPMRecoveryOption -VMwareVM -TargetServer "VCenterServer" 
PS C:\> Restore-DPMRecoverableItem -RecoverableItem $RPoint -RecoveryOption $ROption

Example 5: Recover a VMware virtual machine using Alternate Location Recovery

The first command gets the protection group on the DPM server named DPMServer02. The command stores the result in the $PGroup variable.

The second command gets the protected and unprotected data on the production server in $PServer. The command stores the results in the $PObject variable.

The third command gets the recovery point for the data source in $PObject, and stores that recovery point in the $RPoint variable.

The fourth command gets the DPM production server, and stores it in the $PS.

The fifth command gets the VMware inventory, and then stores it in the $Inventory variable.

The sixth command gets the specified folder, and then stores it in the $Folder variable.

The seventh command gets the specified host, and then stores it in the $Host variable.

The eigth command gets the specified data store, and then stores it in the $Datastore variable.

The ninth command gets the specified resource pool, and then stores it in the $ResourcePool variable.

The tenth command creates a recovery option, and stores it in the $ROption variable.

The last command restores the recovery point in $RPoint using the recovery options in $ROption.

PS C:\>  $PGroup = Get-DPMProtectionGroup -DPMServerName "DPMServer02"
PS C:\> $PObject = Get-DPMDatasource -ProductionServer $PGroup
PS C:\> $RPoint = Get-DPMRecoveryPoint -Datasource $PObject
PS C:\> $PS = Get-DPMProductionServer 
PS C:\> $Inventory= Get-DPMVMwareInventory -ProductionServer $PS
PS C:\> $Folder = $Inventory.RootFolder.ChildFolder[0].ChildFolder[1] 
PS C:\> $Host = $Inventory.ComputeResources[0].Hosts[0]
PS C:\> $Datastore = $Host.datastores[0]
PS C:\> $ResourcePool= $Inventory.ComputeResources[0].RootResourcePool
PS C:\> $ROption = New-DPMRecoveryOption -VMwareVM -TargetServer "VCenterServer" -VMWareTargetFolder $Folder -VMwareTargetHost $Host -VMWareTargetDatastore $Datastore-VMwareTargetResourcePool $ResourcePool
PS C:\> Restore-DPMRecoverableItem -RecoverableItem $RPoint -RecoveryOption $ROption
