IsIddle

Post by ralftar »

When listing a backup copy job throught powershell and Get-VBRJob, what does "IsIddle" stand for?

Is it correct to assume that it is false when the backup copy job is idle, and true when the backup copy job is not idle (ie. performing a copy)?

Your assumption is correct. Be aware that IsIdle is not a dynamic method, but rather a static property.

So in order to get latest information on a predefined basis (say, you're writing some script that can't be executed, while backup copy job is sitting in idle state), it has to be updated within a cycle.

Thanks.
