Description

Adds the passed container name as a new container to the connected database.

Syntax

AddContainer (Name : <String>, [optional]ExistingRoots <String>)

Parameters

Name The name of a container, which will be added to the database.

[optional]ExistingRoots (Optional Parameter) Paths of existing roots, separated by commas, which will be added to the new container (Default value is ‘’).

Example

$SOS.AddContainer("Container1")

SOS.AddContainer "Container1"

The following example demonstrates how to add existing roots to a new container:

$SOS.AddContainer("Container1", "C:\Program Files, D:\, E:\backup")

SOS.AddContainer "Container1", "C:\Program Files, D:\, E:\backup"

Adds the scans of “C:Program Files”, “D:" and “E:backup” to a container named “Container1”. The scans must be present in the database.

In case a container with the given “Name” already exists, no new container is created. Any optional given “ExistingRoots” are added to the existing container.
