How delete job that tries to run from deleted host

Post by eholz1 »

Hello Members,

I have a backup job in VB&R 9.5 that does not show up in the jobs area.
I deleted the host, did not check for the backup job that connected to the host, now deleted.
So the jobs fails, which makes sense, but I cannot find the job in the Veeam job area.

How can I delete this job?

Thanks,

Hi eholz,

By chance does anything show up in the veeam powershell console? I've dinked around with it, and maybe either the Get-VBRJob or Get-VBRBackup cmdlets will help speed this up for you. I've used it to find "hidden" Replica jobs before that prevented the removal of an old ESXi host.

Try it and see if you can find it.

If you can, you can just pipe it to the respective Remove-* cmdlet.

Hello soncscy,

Thanks for the tip. I will try power shell. I may have "fixed" things buy rescanning the hosts, but I am not sure.
If the mystery job runs again (runs on Saturdays), I will use the PowerShell process you suggest.

Thanks,
