powershell show different info

[iyadomry]

HI,
If I run the command get-vbrjob on the PowerShell that build in the veeam console I got different format from the PowerShell that I run from windows powershell
how to get the same formate ??

example:
PowerShell veeam toolkit:

Job Name Type State Last Result Description
-------- ---- ----- ----------- -----------

powershell windows build in:

LogNameMainPart
FreeBackupImpl
IsFree
UserCryptoKey
Id
Info
JobType
SourceType
etc.

If you have launched from the GUI or imported in the snap-in/module (depending on you version of Veeam), the results of Get-VBRJob should be the same.

PowerShell (completely independent of Veeam) works based on formatting XML files which control the default views & output of objects. If these objects aren't displaying the same, then something is not being loaded properly in your PowerShell console.

What version of Veeam are you running, and how are you loading the Veeam cmdlets when not launching from the GUI?

Hi,
I am using Veeam 9.4 update 4, and I am loading the PowerShell from the batch script server 2016.
let me explain my self with more details:
I build batch script call powershell which run the command "get-vbrjob" and send the data to my email
here is real example:

powershell loaded from veeam :

Code: Select all

PS C:\Users\administrator.> get-vbrjob -name PW-KWDS01-10G

Job Name                  Type            State      Last Result  Description
--------                  ----            -----      -----------  -----------
PW-KWDS01-10G             VMware Backup   Stopped    Success      Created by \administrator at 1/2/2019 9:12 PM.

powershell loaded from batch script call powershell script:

Code: Select all

LogNameMainPart              : 
FreeBackupImpl               :
IsFree                       : 
UserCryptoKey                :
Id                           : 
etc.

Please paste the entire scripts that you are using (both the batch script and PowerShell script), as this appears to just be an issue with your scripts.

You can format the object by using Format-Table https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powers ... rshell-7.1

@Talom, the question is rather about discrepancy in default output formatting between powershell console called from VBR and windows powershell called directly. As Joe mentioned, if everything is loaded properly, there should be no difference. Formatting cmdlets could be a workaround though. Thanks!
