Description
The Use-SCDiscardSavedStateVM cmdlet discards the Saved state of a virtual machine in the Saved state. This cmdlet changes the virtual machine from the Saved state to the Stopped state.
Examples
Example 1: Move a virtual machine from Saved state to Stopped state
PS C:\> $Vm01 = Get-SCVirtualmachine -Name "VM01"
PS C:\> Use-SCDiscardSavedStateVM -VM $Vm01
The first command gets the virtual machine named VM01 by using the Get-SCVirtualMachine cmdlet. The virtual machine is in a saved state. The command stores the virtual machine it in the $Vm01 variable.
The second command moves the virtual machine in $Vm01 to a stopped state.
