The syntax is the same for all three vault store backup mode cmdlets. For example:

Clear-VaultStoreBackupMode [-Name] <String> [-EVServerName] <String> [-EvObjectType] <EVObjectType> [<CommonParameters>]

In all cases you must provide the name of the server that owns the vault stores or site, and specify the object type. These parameters allow the cmdlet to find the correct ID.

You must provide the parameters in the order that is shown if you omit the parameter names. However, if you provide parameter names, you can use them in any order. For example:

Clear-VaultStoreBackupMode -EVServerName EVServer -EVObjectType VaultStore -Name VS1

If you know the ID of the vault store, vault store group or site, you can use the following syntax to decrement the backup mode count:

Clear-VaultStoreBackupMode -EntryId <String> [<CommonParameters>]

For example:

Clear-VaultStoreBackupMode -EntryId 1F3C7910CD579234AB8EB207F0ECEBCE91210000EVServer.Domain1.local

This command decrements the backup mode count on the object that has the specified ID. Specify the ID of a vault store to decrement the backup mode count on that vault store. Specify the ID of a vault store group or a site to decrement the backup mode count on all its associated vault stores.

Clear-VaultStoreBackupMode uses the same syntax to decrement the backup mode count on vault stores. It also has an additional parameter which you can use to forcibly clear backup mode from vault stores. For example:

Clear-VaultStoreBackupMode Server-Win2k3 -ForceClearBackupMode 1

This command forcibly clears backup mode from all the vault stores associated with server Server-Win2k3. Clear-VaultStoreBackupMode ignores the existing backup mode count and sets it to 0.

Get-VaultStoreBackupMode also uses the same syntax to report current backup mode settings.
