After the job script dont work

[xcgedich]

Hello Everybody,

I need to run a powershell script after job which one will be doing sth like that:
- check status of backup (Success/Warning/Failed)
- if status is Success -> create file (log) in specific location and send e-mail notification
- if status is Warning or Failed -> send e-mail notification

Unfortunately when I run my ps script manually from Veeam PS Console everything works well, but when I add script (cmd) to my backup job nothing happen (job -> storage -> advanced -> advanced -> Run the following script after the job)

My powershell script look like that:

Code: Select all

	asnp VeeamPSSnapin
	$backuplog="C:\scriptsreport\SUCCESS.log"
	$Job = Get-VBRJob -name "VMs_afters"
	$Error.Clear()

	function SendEmail($To, $From, $Subject, $Body, $attachment, $smtpServer)
	{
			Send-MailMessage -To $To -From $From -Subject $Subject -Body $Body -SmtpServer $smtpServer
	}
	$emailto=tom.mach@xc.local”
	$emailfrom=”veeamserver@xc.local”
	$emailserver="mail.xc.local"
	Get-VBRJob -name "VMs_afters"
	if($job.GetLastresult() -eq "Success")
		{
			remove-item "$backuplog" -Force -Recurse
			Write-Output ("$(get-date -f yyyyMMdd_hhmmss)") | Out-File "$backuplog" -Append
			SendEmail -To "$emailto" -From "$emailfrom" -Subject "VMs_afters Success" -Body "The backup has Success!" -smtpServer "$emailserver"
			break
		} 
	if($job.GetLastresult() -eq "Failed")
		{
			remove-item "$backuplog" -Force -Recurse
			SendEmail -To "$emailto" -From "$emailfrom" -Subject "VMs_afters Failed" -Body "The backup has Failed!" -smtpServer "$emailserver"
			break
		}
	if($job.GetLastresult() -eq "Warning")
		{
			remove-item "$backuplog" -Force -Recurse
			SendEmail -To "$emailto" -From "$emailfrom" -Subject "VMs_afters Warning" -Body "The backup has Warning!" -smtpServer "$emailserver"
			break
		}

My BATCH file (script.cmd) looks like that:

Code: Select all

C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -Noninteractive -File "C:\Scripts\vmsafters.ps1"

I try to fix it in may way but everytime failed after backup job nothing happen any clue or idea ?
Thanks Tom

What happens if you try to run the script manually, using Veeam service account?

Hi Vladimir,

That means that specified account doesn't have required permissions and the scripts don't get executed due to that.

I try to find out, where I need to give higher privileges .

My Veeam Service account is Domain Admin (veeam user),

when I run cmd as a user i got errors (Get-VBRJob : Requested registry access is not allowed.)
when I run cmd as "run as administrator" my batch file run without any errors but nothing happen
when I run cmd via powershell console as a user i got errors (Get-VBRJob : Requested registry access is not allowed.)
when I run cmd via powershell as "run as administrator" my batch file run without any errors but nothing happen
even when I run ps1 script via powershell as normal and "run as administrator" nothing happen
but when I copy all script from ps1 file and run as a administrator, everything works fine.

Maybe somebody have some idea what I need to change on server ? (Win2012R2)

Best Regards
Tom

but when I copy all script from ps1 file and run as a administrator, everything works fine.

Could you elaborate on what you meant by "run ps1 script via PowerShell as normal" and "I copy all script from ps1 file"? Thanks.

[xcgedich]

"run ps1 script via PowerShell as normal" -> Use powershell console and run powershell script (vmsafters.ps1) as a Domain Admin (name of user: veeam)

I copy all script from ps1 file -> open my script (vmsafters.ps1 ), copy everything and paste dirlecty into powershell console and run

sorry for inconvenience

In 64-bit OS there should be two versions of PowerShell: 32 and 64 ones. Can you try to check versions in both provided cases via the following script? Are those versions the same or different?

Code: Select all

[Environment]::Is64BitProcess

Thanks.
