The first command gets all checkpoint objects for VM01 and stores these objects in the $Checkpoints object array.
This example assumes that VM01 has several checkpoints.
The second command removes the first checkpoint in the array ($Checkpoints[0]).
The Confirm parameter prompts you to confirm whether you want to remove the checkpoint.
Example 2: Remove a specified checkpoint for a virtual machine
The first command gets all checkpoint objects for VM01 and stores the objects in the $Checkpoints object array.
This example assumes that VM01 has at least two checkpoints.
The second command removes the first checkpoint stored inthe $Checkpoints array, which is the first checkpoint created for VM01.
The command prompts you for confirmation before proceeding.
