Description
The Start-WBVolumeRecovery cmdlet starts a volume recovery operation from a WBBackupSet backup. The operation formats the recovery target volume before recovery.
Examples
Example 1: Start volume recovery
PS C:\> $Backup = Get-WBBackupSet
PS C:\> Start-WBVolumeRecovery -BackupSet $Backup -VolumeInBackup $Backup.Volume[0] -Force
This example starts a volume recovery to the original location, and it uses the Force parameter to perform the operation without a confirmation message.
The first command stores the result of the Get-WBBackupSet cmdlet in the variable named $Backup. The object stored in the variable is a WBBackupSet object.
The second command starts the volume recovery by using the $Backup variable as input, specifying the first item in the volume array in the WBBackupSet object.
Example 2: Start a volume recovery with a recovery target
PS C:\> $Backup = Get-WBBackupSet
PS C:\> $RecoveryTarget = Get-WBVolume
PS C:\> Start-WBVolumeRecovery -BackupSet $Backup -VolumeInBackup $Backup.Volume[0] -RecoveryTargetVolume $RecoveryTarget
This example starts volume recovery for the System Reserved volume and restores to the recovery target volume.
The first command stores the output of the Get-WBBackupSet cmdlet in the variable named $Backup.
The second command stores the output of the Get-WBVolume cmdlet in the variable named $RecoveryTarget.
The third command starts the recovery operation for the volume specifying the $Backup variable as the backup to use and the $RecoveryTarget variable as the volume to restore.
Parameters
-Async
Indicates that Windows PowerShell returns immediately after it starts the operation. The cmdlet does not display status information.
