Syntax

Description

The Backup-BitLockerKeyProtector cmdlet saves a recovery password key protector for a volume protected by BitLocker Drive Encryption to Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS). Specify a key to be saved by ID.

For an overview of BitLocker, see BitLocker Drive Encryption Overview on TechNet.

Examples

Example 1: Save a key protector for a volume

PS C:\> $BLV = Get-BitLockerVolume -MountPoint "C:"
PS C:\> Backup-BitLockerKeyProtector -MountPoint "C:" -KeyProtectorId $BLV.KeyProtector[1].KeyProtectorId

This example saves a key protector for a specified BitLocker volume.

The first command uses Get-BitLockerVolume to obtain a BitLocker volume and store it in the $BLV variable.

The second command backs up the key protector for the BitLocker volume specified by the MountPoint parameter. The command specifies the key protector by using its ID, contained in the BitLocker object stored in $BLV. The KeyProtector attribute contains an array of key protectors associated to the volume. This command uses standard array syntax to index the KeyProtector object. The key protector that corresponds to the recovery password key protector can be identified by using the KeyProtectorType attribute in the KeyProtector object.

Example 2: Save a key protector using an ID

PS C:\> Backup-BitLockerKeyProtector -MountPoint "C:" -KeyProtectorId "{E2611001E-6AD0-4A08-BAAA-C9c031DB2AA6}"

This command saves a key protector for a specified BitLocker volume to AD DS. The command specifies the key protector by using its ID.
