Description
The Disable-DPMLibrary cmdlet disables one or more System Center - Data Protection Manager (DPM) libraries. You can use this cmdlet to disable a tape library in order to perform maintenance or repairs, and then use the Enable-DPMLibrary cmdlet to enable it for use.
Examples
Example 1: Disable libraries for a named server
PS C:\>$DpmLibrary = Get-DPMLibrary -DPMServerName "DPMServer07"
PS C:\> Disable-DPMLibrary -DPMLibrary $DpmLibrary
The first command uses the Get-DPMLibrary cmdlet to get the tape libraries for the specified server, and then stores those objects in the $DpmLibrary variable.
The second command disables the libraries stored in $DpmLibrary.
