I am struggling to find which command I use to set the number of restore points in a job. Can someone please point me in the right place.
Thanks
Frank

Re: Set the amount of restore points
Hey Frank...something like this should work:
Code: Select all
$jobname="J1"
$RestorePointValue="7"
$JobOptions = Get-VBRJobOptions $jobname
$JobOptions.BackupStorageOptions.RetainCycles = $RestorePointsValue
$Jobname | Set-VBRJobOptions -Options $JobOptions

Re: Set the amount of restore points
The example you gave was close but not 100%, and it got me there. This is what i did that works.
Code: Select all
$RestorePoints = 21
$Joboptions = get-vbrjob -Name JobName | Get-VBRJobOptions
$JobOptions.BackupStorageOptions.RetainCycles = $RestorePoints
get-vbrjob -Name JobName | Set-VBRJobOptions -Options $JobOptions
