Issues with changing MARS Backup agent policy
- Aug 18, 2021
Posted https://www.reddit.com/r/AZURE/comments/p67do4/issues_with_changing_mars_backup_agent_policy/? and received an answer to my question. Posting here in case anyone else comes across the same problem.
Essentially, Remove-OBPolicy will only pause the existing policy unless the -DeleteBackup switch is used https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/msonlinebackup/remove-obpolicy?view=msonlinebackup-ps#description
In my case, I don't think this will work trying to manage the policies for Win10 endpoints in Endpoint Manager due to the -DeleteBackup switch requiring the Azure vault security PIN which is only valid for 5 minutes at a time.
However, I've not found out how to modify an existing policy without removing the previous one.
