Powershell - Get Storage Folder

Post by munklarsen »

Hi guys,

I've been trying to find a way to find the entire path of the folder used for storing the backups of a particular job.

I've tried but that only gives me the root of the storage repository, not the subdirectory where my backup is stored.

Code: Select all

(Get-VBRJob -Name 'jobName').TargetDir
Veeam must know this directory's name and have it stored somewhere - the thing is that someone changed the name of the backup job and that was how i used to generate the entire path to the backup.

Just a quick question - what type of repository you're using? Windows-based, Linux-based, CIFS share, etc.

Hi...

As always, you spend some time working on it, then you turn to the forums for help... and then five minutes later, you solve the issue.

Fixed it like this:

Code: Select all

$JobID = (Get-VBRJob -Name '<JobName>').Info.Id

(Get-VBRBackup | Where-Object ({$_.Info.JobId -eq $JobID})).DirPath
I could find the directory using the Get-VBRBackup and but this had no references to the new job name. So had to find some common ground which then was the Info.Id of the Get-VBRJob and the Info.JobId of the Get-VBRJob.
