Description

The Start-WssServerFileRestore cmdlet starts a file restore operation on a sbs_sbs8_2 server.

Examples

Example 1: Restore files on a server

PS C:\> $Items = Get-WssRecoveryItem
PS C:\> $Option = New-WssRecoveryOption
PS C:\> $Backupsets = Get-WssBackupSet
PS C:\> Start-WssServerFileRestore -BackupSet $Backupsets[1] -RecoveryItems $Items -RecoveryOption $Option

This example restores files on a sbs_sbs8_2 server.

The first command uses the Get-WssRecoveryItem cmdlet to retrieve the recovery items, and stores the result in the variable named Items.

The second command uses New-WssRecoveryOption to create a recovery configuration for a file restore operation, and stores the result in the variable named Option.

The third command uses Get-WssBackupSet to retrieve a collection of backup sets, and stores the collection in a variable named Backupsets.

The fourth command uses Start-WssServerFileRestore to start a file restore operation on the server using the second backup set.
