 [<CommonParameters>]
```

### SLA\_Explicit

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

### SLA\_Unprotected

```
Protect-RubrikVApp -id <String> [-DoNotProtect] [-SLAID <String>] [-Server <String>] [-api <String>] [-WhatIf]
 [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]
```

 [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]
```

## DESCRIPTION

The Protect-RubrikVApp cmdlet will update a vCD vApp'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 vApp ID value and not the vApp name. This is because vApp names may not be unique across clusters. It is suggested that you first use Get-RubrikVApp to narrow down the one or more vApps to protect, and then pipe the results to Protect-RubrikVApp. You will be asked to confirm each vApp you wish to protect, or you can use -Confirm:$False to skip confirmation checks.

## EXAMPLES

### EXAMPLE 1

```
Get-RubrikVApp "vApp1" | Protect-RubrikVApp -SLA 'Gold'
```

This will assign the Gold SLA Domain to any vApp named "vApp1"

### EXAMPLE 2

```
Get-RubrikVApp "vApp1" -SLA 'Silver' | Protect-RubrikVApp -SLA 'Gold' -Confirm:$False
```

This will assign the Gold SLA Domain to any vApp named "vApp1" that is currently assigned to the Silver SLA Domain without asking for confirmation
