Remove-EVIndexSnapshot

Remove-EVIndexSnapshot removes the specified index snapshot of the specified Enterprise Vault index server in the specified Enterprise Vault site.

Syntax
  • Remove-EVIndexSnapshot -SnapshotName <String> [-ForceDelete <SwitchParameter>] [-EVServerName <String>] [-Confirm <SwitchParameter>] [-WhatIf <SwitchParameter>] [<CommonParameters>]

  • Remove-EVIndexSnapshot -SnapshotName <String> [-ForceDelete <SwitchParameter>] -SiteId <String> [-EVServerName <String>] [-Confirm <SwitchParameter>] [-WhatIf <SwitchParameter>] [<CommonParameters>]

Remove-EVIndexSnapshot removes the specified index snapshot of the specified Enterprise Vault index server in the specified Enterprise Vault site.

Remove-EVIndexSnapshot is provided by Symantec.EnterpriseVault.PowerShell.AdminAPI.dll, which the Enterprise Vault Management Shell loads.

Parameters

Table: Remove-EVIndexSnapshot parameters

Parameter

Description

-SnapshotName (required)

Name of the index snapshot that you want to remove.

-ForceDelete

Use -ForceDelete:$true to forcibly delete latest snapshot.

-SiteId

The ID of the Enterprise Vault site from which you want to remove the specified index snapshot.

If you omit this parameter, Remove-EVIndexSnapshot retrieves the SiteId from the Enterprise Vault index server specified as EVServerName parameter; otherwise, it uses the ID of the site of the Enterprise Vault index server where the command is running. You can use the Get-EVSite command to obtain the SiteId.

-EVServerName

The name of the Enterprise Vault index server from which you want to remove the specified index snapshot.

If you omit this parameter, Remove-EVIndexSnapshot uses the host name of the Enterprise Vault index server where the command is running. You can use the Get-EVComputers command to obtain the Enterprise Vault index server name.

-Confirm

You can use the Confirm switch to suppress the confirmation prompt that appears by default when this cmdlet is run. To suppress the confirmation prompt, use the syntax -Confirm:$False. You must include a colon ( : ) in the syntax.

-WhatIf

The WhatIf switch instructs the command to simulate the actions that it would take on the object. By using the WhatIf switch, you can preview the changes that would occur without applying any of those changes. You do not need to specify a value with the WhatIf switch.
