Description

The Unregister-AzureRmRecoveryServicesBackupContainer 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-AzureRmRecoveryServicesVaultContext cmdlet before you use the current cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1: Unregister a Windows Server from the vault

PS C:\>$Cont = Get-AzureRmRecoveryServicesBackupContainer -ContainerType "Windows" -BackupManagementType MARS -Name "server01.contoso.com"
PS C:\> Unregister-AzureRmRecoveryServicesBackupContainer -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.
