Disables protection for a Backup-protected item.

Syntax

Default (Default) 

Disable-AzRecoveryServicesBackupProtection
    [-Item] <ItemBase>
    [-RemoveRecoveryPoints]
    [-RetainRecoveryPointsAsPerPolicy]
    [-Force]
    [-VaultId <String>]

Description

The Disable-AzRecoveryServicesBackupProtection cmdlet disables protection for an Azure Backup-protected item. This cmdlet stops regular scheduled backup of an item and retain forever. This cmdlet can also delete existing recovery points for the backup item if executed with RemoveRecoveryPoints parameter. This cmdlet can suspend backup of an item and retain recovery points as per backup policy if used with RetainRecoveryPointsAsPerPolicy parameter. One condition with this scenario is that backups can't be suspended until immutability is enabled on the vault. To enable immutability on a recovery services vault, pls follow Update-AzRecoveryServicesVault cmdlet. Set the vault context by using the Set-AzRecoveryServicesVaultContext cmdlet before you use the current cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1: Disable Backup protection

$Cont = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupContainer -ContainerType AzureVM
$PI = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -Container $Cont[0] -WorkloadType AzureVM
Disable-AzRecoveryServicesBackupProtection -Item $PI[0]

The first command gets an array of backup containers, and then stores it in the $Cont array. The second command gets the Backup item corresponding to the first container item, and then stores it in the $PI variable. The last command disables Backup protection for the item in $PI[0], but retains the data.

Example 2

Disables protection for a Backup-protected item. (autogenerated)

Disable-AzRecoveryServicesBackupProtection -Item $PI[0] -RemoveRecoveryPoints -VaultId $vault.ID

Example 3: Disable protection with retain recovery points as per policy

$item = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -VaultId $suspendVault.ID -BackupManagementType AzureVM -WorkloadType AzureVM
Disable-AzRecoveryServicesBackupProtection -Item $item[0] -RetainRecoveryPointsAsPerPolicy -VaultId $vault.ID -Force
$item = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -VaultId $suspendVault.ID -BackupManagementType AzureVM -WorkloadType AzureVM
 $item[0].ProtectionState

BackupsSuspended

The first cmdlet fetches the AzureVM backup items for the recovery services vault. The second cmdlet is used to suspend backup for $item[0] of the recovery services vault. One condition with this scenario is that backups can't be suspended until immutability is enabled on the vault. To enable immutability on a recovery services vault, pls follow Update-AzRecoveryServicesVault cmdlet. The third and fourth command are used to fetch the updated backup item and its protection state. To resume protection back, please use Enable-AzRecoveryServicesBackupProtection with parameter -Item.
