Return agent based jobs
Hello
I am trying to write a script that returns the JobID of some managed agent based jobs (windows and Linux) but the commands I use for normal jobs don't seem to show jobs of this type.
Usually, I would use
Get-VBRjob
Get-VBREPJob
but as I said, they don't list managed agent based jobs.

Re: Return agent based jobs
Hello Frank.
PowerShell support for managed agents is currently limited to protection group creation, so this behavior is expected, but it's going to be enhanced in next versions.

Re: Return agent based jobs
yes, you can do it in a unsupported way. for example:
Code: Select all
PS C:\Users\Administrator> [Veeam.Backup.Core.CBackupJob]::GetAll() | ? { $_.JobType -match "EpAgent"} | select name,id,jobtype
Name Id JobType
---- -- -------
vbr 0fe95949-6658-4c74-8a4f-2d8ff673151e EpAgentBackup
Agent Backup AD 318697f3-60a9-4c55-a03c-a1324c32c692 EpAgentPolicy
lin 9327122b-1e75-49aa-bccb-b4a0b057c348 EpAgentBackup
Linux 7b066a8e-5da9-4b1d-ab7c-d26fb899df9a EpAgentBackup

[MERGED] Query Veeam Server Agent backups
Hi,
i want to query all backup results from my Veeam server.
As far as i know it is not possible to get the results for backups from Veeam Agent for Server with powershell.
Does anyone know how to query the results directly from the database?

Re: Return agent based jobs
Just a small CodeSnippet, how you can get all the necessary Objects to gather all informations about EPBackups.
Idk why but the GetBy functions don't return the complete objects so you have to reload them with Get

Code: Select all
foreach($job in [Veeam.Backup.Core.CBackupJob]::GetAll() | ? { $_.JobType -match "EpAgent"}){
try {
if($job){
$sessions += [veeam.backup.core.cbackupsession]::GetByJob($job.id) | Where-Object { ($_.JobType -match 'EpAgent') -and $_.EndTime -ge $date}
}
}catch [System.Exception] {
write-Host $job.Name
}
}
foreach($session in $sessions){
$session = [veeam.backup.core.cbackupsession]::Get($session.Id, $job)
$allSessionIds = $session.AuxData | Select-String -Pattern 'Sessions=\".*\"'
$allSessionIds= $allSessionIds -replace '.*Sessions=\"', ''
$allSessionIds= $allSessionIds -replace '\" /><PolicyTask.*', ''
$ids = $allSessionIds.ToString().Split(';',[System.StringSplitOptions]::RemoveEmptyEntries)
foreach($sessionId in $ids){
if($sessionId -ne 'System.Object[]' ){
$TaskSessions = [Veeam.Backup.Core.CBackupTaskSession]::GetByJobSession($sessionId)
foreach($TaskSession in $TaskSessions){
$TaskSession = [Veeam.Backup.Core.CBackupTaskSession]::Get($TaskSession.Id, $session)
$TaskInfo = $TaskSession.Info
$WorkDetails = $TaskInfo.WorkDetails
}
}
}

Re: Return agent based jobs
Just so you know - all agent-specific commands will be available in Veeam PowerShell snap-in, starting from Update 4. Thanks.

@v.Eremin
Is Veeam PowerShell snap-in Update 4 already available?
Can I get the information which PS snap-in Update version in a PS script?

Re: Return agent based jobs
FYI the snippet still works with Update 4.
I won't use the new agent commands because i have to support multiple Veeam versions.
