# Test-RubrikSnapshotVerification

## SYNOPSIS

Tests a snapshot or multiple snapshots for consistency

## SYNTAX

```
Test-RubrikSnapshotVerification [-id] <String> [-SnapshotID <String[]>] [-LocationID <String>]
 [-VerifyAfter <DateTime>] [-Server <String>] [-api <String>] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]
```

## DESCRIPTION

The Test-RubrikSnapshotVerification cmdlet can be used to validate the fingerprint of a snapshot(s) for consistency and reliablity, returning a csv containing the results

## EXAMPLES

### EXAMPLE 1

```
Test-RubrikSnapshotVerification -id 'VirtualMachine:::111'
```

This will initiate the test for all snapshots on VM with id 111. A callback uri is returned and an ID in order to track the request

### EXAMPLE 2

```
Get-RubrikVM jaapsvm | Test-RubrikSnapshotVerification
```

This will initiate the test for all snapshots on VM 'jaapsvm', A callback uri is returned and an ID in order to track the request

### EXAMPLE 3

```
Start-RubrikDownload -uri (Test-RubrikSnapshotVerification -id 'VirtualMachine:::111' | Get-RubrikRequest -WaitForCompletion).links[1].href
```

This will initiate the test for all snapshots on VM with id 111. The cmdlet will then wait for the Snapshot verification to be completed, when this happens the file is stored to the current folder

### EXAMPLE 4

```
Invoke-RestMethod -uri (Test-RubrikSnapshotVerification -id 'VirtualMachine:::111' | Get-RubrikRequest -WaitForCompletion).links[1].href | ConvertFrom-Csv
```

This will initiate the test for all snapshots on VM with id 111. The cmdlet will then wait for the Snapshot verification to be completed, when this happens the results are converted from csv and displayed in the console
