How to remove several users from VBO backup?

Post by flavio.santos »

Hello everyone!

We have a customer that onboarded with the wrong job config, we choose to backup the entire organization, instead of selecting the only 6 uses he wants.

It is not a big problem, the customer onboarded for only 10 days and I created a new job to backup them, but I don't want them to lose these 10 days of backup.

I see that we have how to remove one user from the backup using the Remove-VBOLicensedUser command https://helpcenter.veeam.com/archive/vb ... duser.html, but this organization has 430 users, and want to backup only 6. I was just checking if there is a better way to do that, instead of removing it one by one.

I was looking for something where I can remove all data, but no these 6 users.

Thanks!

I am afraid that the only option here is to make a CSV with all the 430 users in it, remove those who u want to keep a backup (6 as u state) and then loop through the file and run Remove-VBOEntityData and revoke the license.
