Examples

-------------- Example 1 --------------

C:\PS>$service = Get-EmcReplicationService -ID *60*

$cluster = Get-EmcReplicationServiceCluster -ReplicationService $service

$group = Get-EmcConsistencyGroup -ReplicationServiceCluster $cluster -ID CG_PSTest

This example get a consistency group with a specified replication service cluster.

-------------- Example 2 --------------

C:\PS>$service = Get-EmcReplicationService -ID *60*

$lun = Get-EmcReplicaLun -ReplicationService $service -ID *RP_Set1*

$group = Get-EmcConsistencyGroup -ReplicaLun $lun

This example gets a consistency group with a specified replica LUN.

-------------- Example 3 --------------

C:\PS>$storageSystem = Get-EmcStorageSystem -ID *6439

$storagePool = Get-EmcStoragePool -StorageSystem $storageSystem -ID *RaidGroup*0*

$lun = Get-EmcLun -Pool $storagePool -ID *RP_Set1*

$group = Get-EmcConsistencyGroup -Lun $lun

This example gets a consistency group with a specified storage system LUN.

-------------- Example 4 --------------

C:\PS>$db = Get-EmcMailboxDatabase -ID *mailboxID*  $group = Get-EmcConsistencyGroup -MailboxDatabase $db

This example gets a consistency group with a specified mailbox database.
