That cmdlet gets all protection groups, and passes them to the Where-Object cmdlet by using the pipeline operator. That cmdlet finds the desired group, and then stores that group in the $PGroup variable. For more information, type Get-Help Where-Object.
The second command gets the method of initial online backup for the protection group in $PGroup.
