Examples

Example 1: Modifying a custom Snapshot copy format

 Set-SmResourceGroup -ResourceGroupName PayrollDataset -CustomSnapShotFomat '$CustomText
          $Dataset$Policy$HostName' -CustomText NetApp

This example syntax modifies a custom Snapshot copy format.

Example 2: Modifying a HANA custom Snapshot copy format

 Set-SmResourceGroup -ResourceGroupName "RG1" -PluginCode HANA
          -Resources @{"Host"="hanahost01.testlab.netapp.com";"Uid"="MDC\R71"}
          -CustomSnapShotFomat '$CustomText $Dataset$Policy$HostName' -CustomText NetApp

This example syntax modifies a HANA custom Snapshot copy format.

Example 3: Deleting associated backups when detaching a policy from a resource group

 Set-SmResourceGroup  -ResourceGroupName "RG1" -PluginCode SCSQL -Resources
          @{"Host"="WIN-DVGQDI73QR6";"Type"="SQL Database";"Names"="WIN-DVGQDI73QR6\INST_SQL12\DB123} -Policy poly_full
          -DeleteBackupForDetachPolicies 1

This example syntax modifies a resource group to delete the backups associated with the policy when detaching the policy.

Example 4: Modifying an Oracle Plug-in resource group

 Set-SmResourceGroup -ResourceGroupName 'mixedRG' -Resources @(@{"Host"="R809278EA03V1.HNK2.com";"Oracle Database"="DB11,DB12"},@{"Host"="R8092776CF4V1.HNK2.com";"Application Volume"="appVol1,appVol3"}) -plugincode 'SCO' -Policies 'appVolPolicyModified'

This example syntax modifies the policy and resources of an Oracle Plug-in resource group.
