This is a community project that provides a Microsoft PowerShell module for managing and monitoring Rubrik's Multi-Cloud Data Control fabric by way of published RESTful APIs. If you're looking to perform interactive automation, setting up scheduled tasks, leverage an orchestration engine, or need ad-hoc operations, this module is intended to be valuable to your needs.
Load the module by using:
Import-Module Rubrik
If you wish to load a specific version, use:
Import-Module Rubrik -RequiredVersion #.#.#
Where #.#.# represents the version number, for example 5.3.1
The Rubrik SDK for PowerShell provides multiple mechanisms for supplying credentials to the Connect-Rubrik function; in particular we highlight here 2 methods:
- Using a credential object.
Credentials in the credential object may be entered manually or provided as an object.
This prompts for a username and password to create a credential object, connects to a cluster and displays the running version.
$Credential = Get-Credential Connect-Rubrik -Server 192.168.10.10 -Credential $Credential Get-RubrikDebugInfo
- Using a service account ID and secret.
Example:
This connects to Rubrik cluster utilizing a service account ID and secret, and displays the running version.
Connect-Rubrik -Server 192.168.10.10 -Id "Service Account ID" -Secret "Service Account Secret" Get-RubrikDebugInfo
