    [-FromRecoveryPoint] <DateTime>
    [-ToRecoveryPoint] <DateTime>
    [-SearchDetail] <SearchForDetail>

Description

The New-DPMSearchOption cmdlet creates an object that specifies search options for recoverable objects that System Center - Data Protection Manager (DPM) manages. You can specify a search string, a range of recovery points to search, the type of object to search for, and also a location and whether to search recursively.

Use the Get-DPMRecoverableItem cmdlet to perform a search.

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.
