Description

The New-DPMSearchOption cmdlet creates an object that specifies search options for recoverable objects that System Center - Data Protection Manager (DPM) manages.

Examples

Example 1: Create a search option

PS C:\>New-DPMSearchOption -FromRecoveryPoint "15 September 2009" -ToRecoveryPoint "28 September 2009" -SearchDetail FileFolders -SearchType contains -Recursive -SearchString "tobe" -Location "D:\"

This command creates a search option object for recovery points between September 15, 2009 and September 28, 2009. The object specifies searches for files and folders that contain the string to be in the ___location D:. The command specifies the search as recursive. Therefore, the search also checks files and folders in folders in the D:\ drive.
