Description

The Stop-VMInitialReplication cmdlet stops an ongoing initial replication that uses either a virtual machine restored from backup or the network. It does not stop an initial replication that uses external media. For an initial replication that uses external media, you can use this cmdlet to stop the export, which returns the virtual machine to a pending state. After an export is finished, the initial replication cannot be stopped.

Examples

Example 1

PS C:\> Stop-VMInitialReplication VM01

This example stops initial replication of a virtual machine named VM01.

Example 2

PS C:\>Stop-VMInitialReplication *

This example stops initial replication of all virtual machines whose initial replication is in progress on the local Replica server.

Parameters

-ComputerName

Specifies one or more Hyper-V hosts on which an ongoing initial replication is to be stopped. NetBIOS names, IP addresses, and fully-qualified domain names are allowable. The default is the local computer - use "localhost" or a dot (".") to specify the local computer explicitly.
