## SYNOPSIS

Connects to Rubrik and assigns an SLA Domain based on a vSphere category and tag value

## SYNTAX

### SLA\_Explicit

```
Protect-RubrikTag -Tag <String> -Category <String> [-SLA <String>] [-Server <String>] [-api <String>] [-WhatIf]
 [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]
```

### SLA\_Unprotected

```
Protect-RubrikTag -Tag <String> -Category <String> [-DoNotProtect] [-Server <String>] [-api <String>] [-WhatIf]
 [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]
```

### SLA\_Inherit

```
Protect-RubrikTag -Tag <String> -Category <String> [-Inherit] [-Server <String>] [-api <String>] [-WhatIf]
 [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]
```

## DESCRIPTION

The Protect-RubrikTag cmdlet will update a virtual machine's SLA Domain assignment within the Rubrik cluster. The SLA Domain contains all policy-driven values needed to protect workloads. Make sure you have PowerCLI installed and connect to the required vCenter Server.

## EXAMPLES

### EXAMPLE 1

```
Protect-RubrikTag -Tag 'Gold' -Category 'Rubrik' -SLA 'Gold'
```

This will assign the Gold SLA Domain to any VM tagged with Gold in the Rubrik category

### EXAMPLE 2

```
Protect-RubrikTag -Tag 'Gold' -Category 'Rubrik' -SLA 'Titanium'
```

This will assign the Titanium SLA Domain to any VM tagged with Gold in the Rubrik category

### EXAMPLE 3

```
Protect-RubrikTag -Tag 'Gold' -Category 'Rubrik' -DoNotProtect
```

This will remove protection from any VM tagged with Gold in the Rubrik category

### EXAMPLE 4

```
Protect-RubrikTag -Tag 'Gold' -Category 'Rubrik' -Inherit
```

This will flag any VM tagged with Gold in the Rubrik category to inherit the SLA Domain of its parent object
