Examples
Example 1: Add a list of volumes to a backup policy
PS C:\> $Volumes = Get-WBVolume
PS C:\> $Policy = Get-WBPolicy
PS C:\> Add-WBVolume -Policy $Policy -Volume $VolumesThis example adds a list of volumes for backup to the WBPolicy object.
The first command stores the output of the Get-WBVolume cmdlet in the variable named $Volumes.
The second command calls the Get-WBPolicy cmdlet and assigns the result to the $Policy variable.
The third command adds the volumes in the $Volumes variable to the backup policy.
