Commit Failover

[tsightler]

Is there any method to commit failover via Veeam Powershell. Starting a failover, failback, and committing a failback is are fairly easy, but I don't see a Powershell method to perform the equivalent of a commit failover in the GUI. I can likely do all the steps manually, but it seems like this function should be exposed via Powershell somewhere so I wanted to make sure I wasn't overlooking it.

I believe

Code: Select all

Start-VBRViReplicaFailover -Definite

is what you are looking for, but I haven't had a chance to check it by myself.

Yep, that's probably it, I'll give it a spin. My script was using the non-hypervisor specific cmdlets that don't appear to have this option. Actually, I don't see any mention of the current hypervisor specific failover cmdlets in the V7 Powershell users guide.
