  • Artikkeli

This script helps you to undelete a file share, if you deleted it accidentally. The soft delete security feature for file shares provides you the option of undeleting a file share within the 14 days retention period, allowing recovery of all your file share contents, snapshots, and recovery points.

How to use the script in different scenarios

Prerequisites

  1. Install the latest Azure PowerShell Az modules from this link before running the script.

  2. Keep the following details handy as you'll need to pass them as values for different parameters of the script:

    • -SubscriptionId - ID of the subscription where the file share is present.
    • -ResourceGroupName - Resource Group of the Storage Account hosting the file share.
    • -StorageAccountName - Name of the storage account hosting the file share.
    • -FileShareName - Name of the file share to be undeleted

Execution steps

  1. Save the script above on your machine with a name of your choice. In this example, we saved it as Undelete.ps1
  2. Run the script according to the scenario that fits your requirements.

Scenario 1

There are no multiple deleted versions with the same name as the file share you're trying to undelete.

The following example undeletes the file share share1 present in storage account afsshare.

   .\UnDelete.ps1 -ResourceGroupName afsshare -StorageAccountName afsshare -SubscriptionId f75d8d8b-6735-4697-82e1-1a7a3ff0d5d4 -FileShareName share1

The output should show the message Completed:Restore File Share

Scenario 2

There are multiple deleted versions with the same name as the fileshare you're trying to undelete.

The following example undeletes a version of the file share share1

Step 1

Execute the script as follows by providing the file share name.

   .\UnDelete.ps1 -ResourceGroupName afsshare -StorageAccountName afsshare -SubscriptionId f75d8d8b-6735-4697-82e1-1a7a3ff0d5d4 -FileShareName share1

Completed: Search for a deleted file share with the specified name and Found versions
DeletedVersion: 01D5D7F77ACC7864, DeletedTime: Fri, 31 Jan 2020 05:30:33 GMT, RemainingRetentionDays: 14
DeletedVersion: 01D5D7F7A76CAF42, DeletedTime: Fri, 31 Jan 2020 05:31:25 GMT, RemainingRetentionDays: 14
Restore-DeletedFileShare : More than one share with the specified name was found. Please specify a valid DeletedShareVersion parameter from above possible values.
Step 2

Choose the version from the output of step 1 that you want to undelete and pass it as a value for the -DeletedShareVersion parameter.

The following example undeletes the 01D5D7F77ACC7864 version of the share1 file share.

   .\UnDelete.ps1 -ResourceGroupName afsshare-StorageAccountName afsshare -SubscriptionId f75d8d8b-6735-4697-82e1-1a7a3ff0d5d4 -FileShareName share1 -DeletedShareVersion 01D5D7F77ACC7864
