I need some Guidance

Post by sumwu »

Hi;

I'm creating a portal for customer using. but I can't find the following information. Can someone give me a help?
1. I can use the "lookupsvc" to get VM infomration. The information will give me a "id" if the VM. But I do not know how to bind with this id? have any suggestions?
2. Can I change the "VM" after I use the "Clone job" to create a new job?
3. any api for "Delete job"?
4. any api for " last 24 hours" job history/information?

Thanks for help.

1. Lookup service gives you unique VM identifier. What do you need to bind this identifier to?
2. You mean you want to change job source options?
3. Currently, neither EM nor RestAPI allows you to delete jobs.
4. Have you already tried to query backup sessions?

Thanks.

You can change those options, using the following requests - (POST) /jobs/{ID}/includes, (DELETE) /jobs/{ID}/includes/{ID}. Thanks.

You can query /backupTaskSessions/, or more specifically, TotalSize parameter (regardless of what is written in documentation, it contains information regarding size of processed VM). Thanks.

Check TotalSize parameter of /BackupTaskSessions entity and see whether it's something you're after. Thanks.

I want to calculate the size of the original vms in a backup job, not the size of backup files. Which API should I call?

Did you check the parameter I was talking about? It provides the exact information you're looking for. Thanks.
