Get-VBRTapeJob different in Version 8?

Post by dan11 »

Hello

I've been using the Get-VBRTapeJob in a script to get the LastStatus and LastResult state.

Code: Select all

$jobs = Get-VBRTapeJob -Name "Weekly_Backup*"
foreach($jobtoshow in $jobs)
{
   if ($jobtoshow.GetLastState() -ne "Stopped" -Or $jobtoshow.GetLastResult() -ne "Success")
 ...
After upgrade to Veeam Version 8 the script stopped working.
I found out, that the commands don't work anymore like this.

I had to change $jobtoshow.GetLastState() and $jobtoshow.GetLastResult() to $jobtoshow.LastState and $jobtoshow.LastResult

Are there more commands changed in Version 8?

Thank you

In version 8 the tape PS model has been revised seriously to add missing functionality and improve previously existed drawbacks.

While we're trying to preserve backward functionality, some commandlets, as well as, objects' parameters have been changed and sometimes even replaced with alternatives.

As mentioned here, LastStatus and LastResult are now static parameters, not dynamic methods. Thus, the code should be changed slightly to reflect the changes. But as I can see you've done it already.

Thanks.
