Removes the list of items to include or exclude from a backup, as specified by the OBFileSpec object, from a backup policy (OBPolicy) object.

Syntax

Default (Default)

Remove-OBFileSpec
    [-Policy] <CBPolicy>
    [-FileSpec] <CBFileSpec[]>
    [-Confirm]
    [-WhatIf]

Description

The Remove-OBFileSpec cmdlet removes the list of items to include or exclude from a backup, as specified by the OBFileSpec object, from a backup policy (OBPolicy object). After making changes to the policy object, Set-OBPolicy must be called to set this policy as the current one.

This cmdlet supports WhatIf and Confirm parameters with a medium impact. The medium impact signifies that the cmdlet will not prompt the user by default. The WhatIf parameter gives a verbose description of what the cmdlet does. The Confirm parameter specifies whether the cmdlet should prompt the user. Using -Confirm:$FALSE will override the prompt.

.

To use Microsoft Azure Backup cmdlets, the user needs to be an administrator on the protected machine.
