Description

The Restore-IscsiVirtualDisk cmdlet restores an iSCSI virtual disk using its snapshot.

Examples

Example 1: Restore a snapshot by using its ID 

PS C:\> Restore-IscsiVirtualDisk -SnapshotId "{E9A5BA03-85B9-40CA-85DF-DC1695690B40}"

This example restores a snapshot with the ID {E9A5BA03-85B9-40CA-85DF-DC1695690B40}.

Example 2: Restore a snapshot hosted on another computer 

PS C:\> Restore-IscsiVirtualDisk -SnapshotId "{E9A5BA03-85B9-40CA-85DF-DC1695690B40}" -ComputerName "fs1.contoso.com"

This example restores a snapshot with the ID {E9A5BA03-85B9-40CA-85DF-DC1695690B40} hosted on a computer named fs1.contoso.com.

Example 3: Restore a snapshot by using an input object 

PS C:\> Restore-IscsiVirtualDisk -InputObject $vhd1snapshot
