Syntax

Unregister-AzRecoveryServicesBackupContainer
          [-Container] <ContainerBase>
          [-PassThru]
          [-Force]
          [-VaultId <String>]
          [-DefaultProfile <IAzureContextContainer>]

Description

The Unregister-AzRecoveryServicesBackupContainer cmdlet unregisters a Windows Server or other Backup container from the vault. This cmdlet removes references to a container from the vault. Before you can unregister a container, you must delete any protected data associated with that container. Set the vault context by using the Set-AzRecoveryServicesVaultContext cmdlet before you use the current cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1: Unregister a Windows Server from the vault

$vault = Get-AzRecoveryServicesVault -ResourceGroupName "resourceGroup" -Name "vaultName"
$Cont = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupContainer -ContainerType "Windows" -BackupManagementType MAB -VaultId $vault.ID
Unregister-AzRecoveryServicesBackupContainer -Container $Cont

The first command gets the Windows container named server01.contoso.com that is registered in the vault, and then stores it in the $Cont variable. The second command unregisters the specified Windows Server from the Azure Backup vault.

Example 2

Unregisters a Windows Server or other container from the vault. (autogenerated)

Unregister-AzRecoveryServicesBackupContainer -Container $Cont -VaultId $vault.ID

Example 3: Unregister a MSSQL container from the vault

$vault = Get-AzRecoveryServicesVault -ResourceGroupName "resourceGroup" -Name "vaultName"
$Cont = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupContainer -ContainerType AzureVMAppContainer -BackupManagementType AzureWorkload -VaultId $vault.ID | Where-Object { $_.Name -match "pstest-vm" }
Unregister-AzRecoveryServicesBackupContainer -Container $Cont

The first command gets the container with Name like "pstest-vm" that is registered in the vault, and then stores it in the $Cont variable. The second command unregisters the specified backup container from the recovery services vault and outputs the backup job to monitor and track completion.
