## DESCRIPTION

The Get-RubrikRequest cmdlet will pull details on a request that was submitted to the distributed task framework. This is helpful for tracking the state (success, failure, running, etc.) of a request.

## EXAMPLES

### EXAMPLE 1

```
Get-RubrikRequest -id 'MOUNT_SNAPSHOT_123456789:::0' -Type 'vmware/vm'
```

### EXAMPLE 2

```
Get-RubrikRequest -id 'MOUNT_SNAPSHOT_123456789:::0' -Type 'vmware/vm'
```

Will wait for the specified async request to report a 'SUCCESS' or 'FAILED' status before returning details

### EXAMPLE 3

```
Get-RubrikVM jbrasser-lin | Get-RubrikSnapshot -Latest | New-RubrikMount -MountName 'SuperCoolVM' | Get-RubrikRequest -WaitForCompletion -Verbose
```

Will take the latest Snapshot of jbrasser-lin and create a live mount of this Virtual Machine, Get-RubrikRequest will poll the cluster until the VM is available while displaying Verbose information.

### EXAMPLE 4

```
Update-RubrikVCenter vCenter:::111 | Get-RubrikRequest -WaitForCompletion
```

Updates Rubrik vCenter and waits for completion of the request
