PowerShell Module

Rapid Recovery consists of several software components. Key components relevant to this topic include the following:

  • The Rapid Recovery Core manages authentication for protected machines, schedules for transferring data for backup and replication, export to virtual machines, reporting, and bare metal restore (BMR) to similar or dissimilar hardware.
  • The Rapid Recovery Agent is responsible for taking volume snapshots and for fast transfer of the data to the repository managed by the Core.
  • The Rapid Recovery PowerShell module is a Windows utility that lets users interact with the Core server by using Windows PowerShell® scripts. This module offers some of the same functionality that the Rapid Recovery Core Console graphic user interface (GUI) provides. For example, the Rapid Recovery PowerShell module can mount Rapid Recovery recovery points or force a snapshot of a protected machine.

Figure 2: The PowerShell module interacts with the Rapid Recovery Core

PowerShell is a Microsoft .NET Framework-connected environment designed for administrative automation. This section describes the Rapid Recovery PowerShell module and the cmdlets administrators can use to script certain functions without interaction with the Rapid Recovery Core GUI.

NOTE: You can also run PowerShell scripts as pre- and post- scripts. For more information and sample scripts, see Scripting.

The Rapid Recovery PowerShell module is automatically installed and registered when you install the Rapid Recovery Core. The module is installed in your Windows system directory in the path: [Environment.SystemDirectory]\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\RapidRecoveryPowerShellModule. For example, for a 64-bit OS, it is installed in C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\RapidRecoveryPowerShellModule. When using the module, run PowerShell as an Administrator.

Prerequisites for using PowerShell

Before using the Rapid Recovery PowerShell module, you must have Windows PowerShell 4.0 or later installed. Some users find Windows PowerShell Integrated Scripting Environment (PowerShell ISE) to be easier to work with. This tool is included with Windows. When typing cmdlets, the built-in help for PowerShell ISE lists relevant cmdlets, anticipating your keystrokes and letting you select the appropriate command.

Working with commands and cmdlets

Cmdlets are specialized commands in a Windows PowerShell script that perform a single function. A cmdlet is typically expressed as a verb-noun pair. The result returned by a cmdlet is an object.

You can pipeline PowerShell commands, which enables the output of one cmdlet to be piped as input to another cmdlet. As a simple example, you can request the list of commands in the Rapid Recovery PowerShell module, and sort that list by name. The example script for this is: 

Get-Command -module rapidrecoverypowershellmodule | sort-object name
Getting cmdlet help and examples

After you open PowerShell, you can request additional information at any time by using the Get-Help cmdlet. For example, to get information about the virtual machine export cmdlet, enter the following cmdlet and then press [Enter]: 

>Get-Help Start-VMExport

The object returned includes the command name, synopsis, syntax, and any options you can use with the command.

Command options

For more information about the specified command, you can append the following command options to the command syntax listed above:
