Updates the source and target server for the protection of a Site Recovery object.

Note

The cmdlets referenced in this documentation are for managing legacy Azure resources that use Azure Service Manager (ASM) APIs. This legacy PowerShell module isn't recommended when creating new resources since ASM is scheduled for retirement. For more information, see Azure Service Manager retirement.

The Az PowerShell module is the recommended PowerShell module for managing Azure Resource Manager (ARM) resources with PowerShell.

Description

The Update-AzureSiteRecoveryProtectionDirection cmdlet updates the source and target server for the protection of an Azure Site Recovery object after a commit failover operation finishes.

Examples

Example 1: Modify the direction for a protected object in a container

PS C:\> $Container = Get-AzureSiteRecoveryProtectionContainer
PS C:\> $Protected = Get-AzureSiteRecoveryProtectionEntity -ProtectionContainer $Container
PS C:\> Update-AzureSiteRecoveryProtectionDirection -Direction RecoveryToPrimary -ProtectionEntity $Protected
ID               : c38eecdc-731c-405b-a61c-08db99aae2fe
ClientRequestId  : 32ace403-0916-4967-83a1-529176bd6e88-2014-49-06 15:49:24Z-P
State            : NotStarted
StateDescription : NotStarted
StartTime        :
EndTime          :
AllowedActions   : {}
Name             :
Tasks            : {}
Errors           : {}

The first command gets the protected containers in the current Azure Site Recovery vault by using the Get-AzureSiteRecoveryProtectionContainer cmdlet, and then stores it in the $Container variable.

The second command gets the virtual machines that belong to the container stored in $Container by using the Get-AzureSiteRecoveryProtectionEntity cmdlet. The command stores the results in the $Protected variable.

The final command sets the direction to RecoverToPrimary for the objects stored in $Protected.
