Set-WBPerformanceConfiguration
Sets the current volume backup performance settings.
Syntax
Set-WBPerformanceConfiguration
[-Volume] <WBVolume>
[-PerformanceSetting] <WBPerformanceConfiguration>
[<CommonParameters>]
Set-WBPerformanceConfiguration
[-OverallPerformanceSetting]
[-PerformanceSetting] <WBPerformanceConfiguration>
[<CommonParameters>]
Description
The Set-WBPerformanceSetting cmdlet sets the current volume backup performance settings. The settings are applicable only for volume backups; these settings are not applicable for files, folders, system state, or applications. The settings apply globally to all volumes in a backup, or to specific volumes.
Examples
Example 1: Set the global performance setting
PS C:\> Set-WBPerformanceConfiguration -OverallPerformanceSetting AlwaysIncremental
This command sets the global performance settings as incremental for volume backups.
Example 2: Set a specific volume performance setting
PS C:\> $Backup = Get-WBBackupSet
PS C:\> Set-WBPerformanceConfiguration -Volume $Backup.Volume[1] AlwaysFull
This example sets the performance settings for a specific volume.
The first command stores the result of the Get-WBBackupSet cmdlet in the variable named $Backup.
The second command sets the AlwaysFull performance setting on the second volume of $Backup.
Parameters
-OverallPerformanceSetting
Indicates that the changes affect the global performance setting. If you do not use this parameter, then the Volume parameter must be specified.
Type: | SwitchParameter |
Position: | 0 |
Default value: | None |
Required: | True |
Accept pipeline input: | False |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-PerformanceSetting
Specifies the performance settings for which this cmdlet sets. The acceptable values for this parameter are::
- AlwaysFull: The time to create a backup is proportional to the size of volume being backed up. This can be set at a global level for all volumes or specific for some volumes.
- AlwaysIncremental: Increase the backup speed by just tracking the changes between the last and current backup. This option is not recommended for servers with disk-intensive operation which may experience reduced disk throughput on volumes included in the backup. This can be set at a global level for all volumes or specific for some volumes.
