Repair-VM

Reference

Module:: Hyper-V

Repairs one or more virtual machines.

Syntax

Repair-VM
      [-CompatibilityReport] <VMCompatibilityReport>
      [-SnapshotFilePath <String>]
      [-Path <String>]
      [-Passthru]
      [-WhatIf]
      [-Confirm]
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Repair-VM cmdlet corrects some issues that can impact the ability to import or move a virtual machine. If Compare-VM determines that an import or move operation would fail for a particular VM, it returns a collection of incompatibilities that need to be fixed before the operation can succeed. Most of these incompatibilities can be fixed by using Set-VM. However, Set-VM does not modify either the path where the VM configuration is stored or the path where the snapshot files are stored. Repair-VM handles these two particular issues in this one specific situation.

Examples

Example 1

PS C:\> Repair-VM -CompatibilityReport $VMCompatReport -Path C:\Test

This example changes the configuration path for a virtual machine compatibility report.

Example 2

PS C:\> Repair-VM -CompatibilityReport $VMCompatReport -SnapshotFilePath C:\Snapshots

This example adds missing snapshots to a virtual machine compatibility report.
