Description

The Remove-WBBackupSet cmdlet removes a set of backups from a target catalog, a system catalog, or both.

Examples

Example 1: Remove oldest backup set

PS C:\> $Ret = Remove-WBBackupSet -DeleteOldest -BackupTarget $WB_BackupTarget -MachineName $MachineName -Force

This command deletes the oldest backup of the computer that has its name in the $MachineName variable from the backup target and stores the result in the variable named $Ret. Because the command includes the Force parameter, it does not ask for confirmation of the deletion.

Parameters

-BackupSet

Specifies an array of backup set objects that determine which backup or which backup sets that this cmdlet removes. You can specify one backup or an array of backup sets.

Type:WBBackupSet[]
Position:0
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-BackupTarget

Specifies a backup target object that indicates the storage location with the backups that you want to remove.

Use this parameter to delete backups from computers other than the local computer. The cmdlet deletes the backup sets from the catalog on the computer that you specify in this parameter and from the system catalog of the local computer. These locations can be locally attached disk drives or remote shared folders.

Type:WBBackupTarget
Position:3
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Credential

Specifies a PSCredential object that contains the username and password for a user account that has access permissions for the location that stores backups.

To obtain a credential object, use the Get-Credential cmdlet. For more information, type Get-Help Get-Credential.

Type:PSCredential
Position:4
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-DeleteOldest

Indicates that the cmdlet removes the oldest backup in the set.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:2
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Force

Forces the command to run without asking for user confirmation.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:7
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-KeepVersions

Specifies the number of the most recent backups to keep on the backup target. The cmdlet removes backups over this number from the target.

If you specify this parameter along with the BackupTarget and MachineName parameters, the cmdlet examines the target location on the specified computer for backups to remove.

Type:Int32
Position:1
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-MachineName

Specifies the name of the computer for which this cmdlet removes backups.

Use this parameter when you specify the BackupTarget parameter or when multiple computers store backups in the same location.

Type:String
Position:6
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-NetworkPath

Specifies the path to the remote shared folder from which the cmdlet removes backups.

Type:String
Position:3
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-NonInheritAcl

Do not use. This parameter is not implemented in this version of the module.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:5
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-VolumePath

Specifies the drive letter of the volume where the cmdlet stores backups.
