Total Estimated size of source VMs

Post by jjlethiers »

Hi all,
I am currently writing a PS script to automate BCJ creation.
Based on vCloud Director inventory, it creates a Backup Copy Job per Organization.
However, when Organization is too big, I would like to split the job and create per-Organization vDC jobs.
Issue is that I am not able to find the "Total Size" value which is available in the GUI when editing the job in "Objects to process" table.
Any idea?
Regards,
JJ

Hello,
I have no direct answer to your question, but could VMWare powershell commands be a workaround?

Best regards,
Hannes

The estimated VM size is not exposed in Veeam PS snap-in, indeed, so, you will need to leverage VMware or vCloud Director PowerShell cmdlets to get this info. Thanks!

Hi,
Thank you both for your reply.
Issue is that currently my script does not need vCD service account as it only talks with Veeam Backup server.
Anyway, I guess I'll have to leverage vCD PS cmdlets.
Regards,
JJ
