Do we have some ready made batch files available

Do we have some ready made batch files available on EV server or download location

which can be used to put it in backup mode and second to remove it from backup mode.

To Set Backup Mode:

set-vaultstorebackupmode -name 'Vault Store Group' -evservername EVServer -evobjecttype vaultstoregroup
 

set-indexlocationbackupmode -evservername EVServer

To Clear Backup Mode:

clear-vaultstorebackupmode -name 'Vault Store Group' -evservername EVServer -evobjecttype vaultstoregroup
 

clear-indexlocationbackupmode -evservername EVServer

Here's another example of how you can do it. Modify the paths and variables to suit your environment:

To Set Backup Mode:

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell -PSConsolefile "C:\Program Files (x86)\Enterprise Vault\EVShell.psc1" -command "& {Set-IndexLocationBackupMode -EVServerName EVSERVER -EVSiteName EVSITE}"

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell -PSConsolefile "C:\Program Files (x86)\Enterprise Vault\EVShell.psc1" -command "& {Set-VaultStoreBackupMode -Name EVSITE -EVServerName EVSERVER -EVObjectType site}"
 

To Clear Backup Mode:

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell -PSConsolefile "C:\Program Files (x86)\Enterprise Vault\EVShell.psc1" -command "& {Clear-IndexLocationBackupMode -EVServerName EVSERVER -EVSiteName EVSITE}"

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell -PSConsolefile "C:\Program Files (x86)\Enterprise Vault\EVShell.psc1" -command "& {Clear-VaultStoreBackupMode -Name EVSITE -EVServerName EVSERVER -EVObjectType site}"

As Andrew points out you might need to point to the v1 powershell exe.

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell

Here's an article for using the commands in scripts like the examples I provided:
