SYNOPSIS

Connects to Rubrik and assigns an SLA to a database

SYNTAX

SLA_Explicit

Protect-RubrikDatabase -id <String> [-SLA <String>] [-SLAID <String>] [-Server <String>] [-api <String>]
 [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

SLA_Unprotected

Protect-RubrikDatabase -id <String> [-DoNotProtect] [-SLAID <String>] [-ExistingSnapshotRetention <String>]
 [-Server <String>] [-api <String>] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

SLA_Inherit

Protect-RubrikDatabase -id <String> [-Inherit] [-SLAID <String>] [-Server <String>] [-api <String>] [-WhatIf]
 [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

The Protect-RubrikDatabase cmdlet will update a database's SLA Domain assignment within the Rubrik cluster. The SLA Domain contains all policy-driven values needed to protect workloads. Note that this function requires the Database ID value, not the name of the database, since database names are not unique across hosts. It is suggested that you first use Get-RubrikDatabase to narrow down the one or more database / instance / hosts to protect, and then pipe the results to Protect-RubrikDatabase. You will be asked to confirm each database you wish to protect, or you can use -Confirm:$False to skip confirmation checks.

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

Get-RubrikDatabase -Name "DB1" | Protect-RubrikDatabase -SLA 'Gold'

This will assign the Gold SLA Domain to any database named "DB1"

EXAMPLE 2

Get-RubrikDatabase -Name "DB1" -Instance "MSSQLSERVER" | Protect-RubrikDatabase -SLA 'Gold' -Confirm:$False

This will assign the Gold SLA Domain to any database named "DB1" residing on an instance named "MSSQLSERVER" without asking for confirmation

EXAMPLE 3

Get-RubrikDatabase -Name "DB1" -Instance "MSSQLSERVER" | Protect-RubrikDatabase -DoNotProtect -ExistingSnapshotRetention KeepForever

This will set the DB1 database as unprotected, while keeping existing snapshots forever
