Windows 10: Cannot workaround to use Powershell to recover from a windows server backup to a remote...

I am using windows server 16. I have a backup of the system state that was taken on remote share path //IP/pathA using the wbadmin tool.Now I am trying to restore using this backup. The backup is being exposed using a different remote share path //IP/pathB. Now the issue is that we have do the following steps to initiate the recovery using powershell$target=New-WBBackupTarget -NetworkPath "\\IP\pathB" -Credential $Cred$backups=Get-WBBackupSet -BackupTarget $target$backup=$backups[0]Now when I print this $backup object, the BackupTarget field is still the original path the backup was taken to.$

Programatically execute remote commands from Linux server to Microsoft Windows server

Here is something to try....

• Install Powershell on Linux (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/po...ng-powershell-core-on-linux?view=powershell-6)
• Configure the server to allow remote execution (https://www.howtogeek.com/117192/how-to-run-powershell-commands-on-remote-computers/)
• Use powershell in a script on Linux to run the app on Windows

PS: I have not tried this...

 

Windows Powershell Remote Commands Not Working -RPC Server Unavailable

In your other thread, you mentioned you had tried a scheduled task but it did not work.

I tested now, creating a task to force shutdown at certain time, exported it to three virtual and two physical machines. Task worked without any issues on all of them

Let's check you configured the task correctly.

First, select Create Task, do not use Create Basic Task.

New task, I've highlighted all important items. General tab:





Trigger:





Action:





Conditions, clear everything:





Settings, clear everything except the highlighted items:





The task shown in above screenshots would force computer to shutdown daily at midnight (00:00), starting today. As I mentioned, I tested this now on five machines forcing them to shut down at certain time, as it is afternoon here I used 16:30 (4:30 PM) as trigger. To my satisfaction I saw all virtual and physical machines to shut down within 30 seconds after specified time.

Should work.
