PowerShell changing tape incremental settings

Post by lightsout »

All,

So are per this page:

http://helpcenter.veeam.com/backup/80/p ... pejob.html

I want to clear "Process Incremental Backup" from the job and I see "ProcessIncrementalBackup" but there is no way to turn it off and only to turn it on. I've looked for methods to change the tape options without luck.

Is it possible to clear this setting via PowerShell?

Try the following example:

Code: Select all

$Job = Get-VBRTapeJob -name "Name of your backup to tape job"
$Job | Set-VBRBackupToTapeJob -ProcessIncrementalBackup:$false
Thanks.

Ahh, yes, that does it. I tried:

Code: Select all

$Job | Set-VBRBackupToTapeJob -ProcessIncrementalBackup $false
I was close, but no cigar. Thanks!

Since -ProcessIncrementalBackup is a switch, rather than a parameter, the corresponding syntax should be a bit different. But you were close, indeed. :)
