About Start-VBRVMRestoreToAmazon

The method Start-VBRVMRestoreToAmazon needs a DiskConfiguration parameter, which seems to assume there is only one disk???

What to do when we have more than one disk?

Does it though? In the article you shared it is stated in the cmdlet signature that -DiskConfiguration parameter accepts VBRAmazonEC2DiskConfiguration[], where "[]" is C# notation for arrays. Another thing is that in the parameter description it is not mentioned and should be fixed. I sent the feedback on that to the technical writers team. Thanks!

Thanks Oleg.

Are you saying it is pretty clear that an array is expected? :)

I'm saying that it's obscure due to the discrepancy between parameter description and parameter signature defined in the article.
However, the actual cmdlet parameter can work with an array, as defined in the cmdlet signature. That's why I submitted a feedback to our tech writers.
Each value created with New-VBRAmazonEC2DiskConfiguration cmdlet and passed to -DiskConfiguration parameter of the restore cmdlet corresponds to the disk specification created in Restore to Amazon Wizard on this step. Thanks!
