The Edit-ActiveBlockMapping
cmdlet lets you make changes to the Active Block Mapping settings for a specified protected machine.
The usage for the command is as follows:
Edit-ActiveBlockMapping -core [host name] -user [user name] -password [password] -protectedserver [name | IP address] -enable | -disable [enable/disable feature] -swapfiles [enable | disable] -subdirectories [enable | disable] -usedefaultsettings [enable | disable]
The following table describes the options available for the Edit-ActiveBlockMapping
command:
Option | Description |
---|---|
-? |
Display this help message. |
-core |
Optional. Remote Core host machine IP address (with an optional port number). By default the connection is made to the Core installed on the local machine. |
-user |
Optional. User name for the remote Core host machine. If you specify a user name, you also have to provide a password.
If none are provided, then the logged-on user's credentials will be used. |
-password |
Optional. Password to the remote Core host machine. If you specify a password, you also have to provide a log on.
If none are provided, then the logged-on user's credentials will be used. |
-protectedserver |
Use this option to edit the vCenter or ESXi objects for a specific protected machine. |
-enable |
Optional. The enable option does not change the settings for swap files and exclusion lists; it turns Active Block Mapping on. If swap files are off and the exclusion list is empty, using the enable option alone only ignores the blocks of deleted files. |
-disable |
Optional. The disable option does not change the settings for swap files and exclusion lists; it turns Active Block Mapping off so all blocks are backed up, including swap files and excluded paths. If you call the enable option later, the Core uses the same settings for swap files and exclusion lists. |
-swapfiles |
Optional. 'Enable' and 'disable' values determine whether to block swap files from exclusion. |
-subdirectories |
Optional. 'Enable' and 'disable' values determine whether to exclude child items. |
-usedefaultsettings |
Optional. 'Enable' and 'disable' values determine whether to use the parent server settings. |
Enable Active Block Mapping so that swap files are excluded from backups of machine 10.10.8.150:
>Edit-ActiveBlockMapping -protectedserver 10.10.8.150 -enable -swapfiles enable
Reverse the previous command so that Active Block Mapping is enabled and swap files are included in backups of machine 10.10.8.150:
>Edit-ActiveBlockMapping -protectedserver 10.10.8.150 -enable -swapfiles disable
