DESCRIPTION

The Register-AzureRmBackupContainer cmdlet registers the container with an Azure Backup vault. To configure backup by using Azure Backup, first

register your server or virtual machine with a Backup vault. This cmdlet registers an infrastructure as a service (IaaS) virtual machine with the

specified vault. The register operation associates the Azure virtual machine with the backup vault and tracks the virtual machine through the

backup life cycle.

NOTES









Example 1: Register a virtual machine to a Backup vault



PS C:\\>$Vault = Get-AzureRmBackupVault -Name "Vault03"

PS C:\\> Register-AzureRmBackupContainer -Vault $Vault -Name "Contoso03Vm" -ServiceName "ContosoService27"



The first command gets the vault named Vault03 by using the Get-AzureRmBackupVault cmdlet. The command stores the vault in the $Vault variable.



The second command registers the virtual machine named Contoso03Vm with the vault in $Vault. That virtual machine belongs to the service named

ContosoService27.
