Will this PS script delete all OneDrive backups within the repository, leaving the rest in-tact? I changed settings from another post in the forum, but just want to double-check.
Code: Select all
$repo = Get-VBORepository -Name "backup_repo_name"
$usersList = Get-VBOEntityData -Type User -Repository $repo
foreach ($user in $usersList) {
Remove-VBOEntityData -Repository $repo -User $user -OneDrive -Confirm:$false
}

This will delete all the OneDrive data.
If u remove "-Confirm:$false", you will have to confirm before deletion (if you want to play safe).

With the above script, you will delete all backed-up OneDrive accounts from your repository; user mailboxes and personal sites (if any) will remain untouched in the backup.

Thanks Polina!
Is there a way to check how much has been saved after the processing or will veeam365 just reuse the "white space"?

If you're using local volumes and JET-based repositories, backup databases will not shrink but the free space will be reused on the next runs.
