Syntax

Backup-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem
      -Item <ItemBase>
      [-ExpiryDateTimeUTC <DateTime>]
      [-BackupType <BackupType>]
      [-EnableCompression]
      [-VaultId <String>]

Description

The Backup-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem cmdlet takes an adhoc backup of protected Azure backup item. Using this cmdlet you can do an initial backup immediately after you enable protection or start a backup if a scheduled backup fails. This cmdlet can also be used for custom retention with or without expiry date - refer parameters help text for more details.

Examples

Example 1: Start a backup for a Backup item

$vault = Get-AzRecoveryServicesVault -ResourceGroupName "resourceGroup" -Name "vaultName"
$NamedContainer = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupContainer -ContainerType AzureVM -FriendlyName "pstestv2vm1" -VaultId $vault.ID
$Item = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -Container $NamedContainer -WorkloadType AzureVM -VaultId $vault.ID
$Job = Backup-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -Item $Item -VaultId $vault.ID -ExpiryDateTimeUTC (Get-Date).ToUniversalTime().AddDays(60)
$Job

Operation        Status               StartTime            EndTime                   JOBID
------------     ---------            ------               ---------                 -------
pstestv2vm1      Backup               InProgress           4/23/2016 5:00:30 PM      cf4b3ef5-2fac-4c8e-a215-d2eba4124f27

The first command gets the Backup container of type AzureVM named pstestv2vm1, and then stores it in the $NamedContainer variable. The second command gets the Backup item corresponding to the container in $NamedContainer, and then stores it in the $Item variable. The last command triggers the backup job for the Backup item in $Item with an expiry time of 60 days from now, default value for expiry time is 30 days if not specified.
