New-ZertoVpg

SYNOPSIS

Creates a New VPG with default settings only. Customization of VM settings can be accomplished with other module level functions. Returns a VpgSettingsIdentifier to be passed into the Save-ZertoVpgSetting function to create the VPG.

DESCRIPTION

Creates a New VPG with minimal default settings only. If additional configuration is desired, the VPG settings identifier will be returned and can be passed to other VPG modifying functions to include additional details.

Finally, to save the settings, you need to pass the Vpg Settings Identifier to the Save-ZertoVpgSettings function to commit the the VPG.

EXAMPLES

Example 1

PS C:> New-ZertoVpg -vpgName "MyVpg" -protectedVm "WebServer01", "AppServer01", "DatabaseServer01" -recoverySite "Recovery Site" -recoveryFolder "Recovered VMs" -recoveryCluster "Recovery Cluster Name" -recoveryDatastoreCluster "Datastore Cluster Name" -testNetwork "Test Bubble Network" -recoveryNetwork "VM Network"

Creates a VPG Settings Object for a VPG called "MyVpg" and protecting Virtual Machines "WebServer01", "AppServer01", and "DatabaseServer01" targeting site "Recovery Site." The Virtual machines will be placed on the compute cluster "Recovery Cluster Name" on the datastore cluster "Datastore Cluster Name." When the virtual machines are created at the recovery site, they will be created in the folder "Recovered VMs." Finally, the network to be used during a live event will be "VM Network" and during a test operation will be "VM Network." Other values set will be the defaults, such as:

  • VpgPriority: Medium
  • JournalHistoryInHours: 24
  • RpoInSeconds: 300
  • TestIntervalInMinutes: 262080
  • UseWanCompression: True
  • ServiceProfile: Null
