Businesses often use long-term storage to archive both compliant and non-compliant data. The archive feature in Rapid Recovery is used to support the extended retention for compliant and non-compliant data. The administrator can save an archive on the local storage or network location by specifying the -Path
command and credentials.
Usage
The usage for the command is as follows:
Start-RestoreArchive -core [host name] -user [login] -password [password] -all | -protectedserver [name | IP address | "[name1 | IP address1]" "[name2 | IP address2]"] -repository [name] -archiveusername [name] -archivepassword [password] -path [location] -cloudaccountname [name] -cloudcontainer [name]
