Start-VBRHvInstantRecovery

[Lightboltz]

Hi guys,
So I've been testing InstantRecovery to a Windows 10 Hyper-V test machine host. I'm able to run everything perfectly with the normal VEEAM Console.
But now I would like to run it with Powershell.

The problem is that when I run the command below I get the error: "Failed to process restore point e7a844ee-09d9-48a7-9a1b-ce509bb0a7fa. Platform EEndPoint is not supported"

Get-VBRBackup -Name "BACKUP" | Get-VBRRestorePoint | Sort-Object -Property CreationTime -Descending | Select-Object -First 1 | Start-VBRHvInstantRecovery -Server ABC -Path \\ABC\VM -PowerUp $True -NICsEnabled $False

Anyone have any idea what this error means?

Thanks

Hi Lightboltz

Are you trying to do a instant vm recovery session from a veeam agent backup to hyperv? Plattform Endpoint refers to Veeam Agent for Windows Backups.

Start-VBRHvInstantRecovery can only be used for VM Backups to HyperV.
Start-VBRInstantRecovery Is used for VM Backups to VmWare.
Start-VBRViComputerInstantRecovery Is used for Veeam Agent Backups to VmWare.
Start-VBREpInstantRecovery can be used for Veeam Agent Backups to HyperV.

Can you try this command instead of yours?
Start-VBREpInstantRecovery

Hi, is there an equivalent cmdlet to "Start-VBRViComputerInstantRecovery" that I can use to script VMWare backups to Hyper-V? Many thanks

Hi Lee,

There isn't yet, but we plan to add any to Hv instant recovery support for Start-VBRHvInstantRecovery cmdlet in v12.

Thanks,
Oleg

Ok thanks for the quick reply Oleg, I foresee more and more migration scenarios from VMWare to Azure Stack HCI in the future and so this would be very useful. Regards.

Also, Oleg, do you have a date when the next version (12) will be released?

[oleg.feoktistov]

I don't, but here is the best answer to your question

Thanks, ia there a way I can get access to the Beta?

That was the problem. With Start-VBREpInstantRecovery it works. But now I get another error when running from Powershell. After mount I get an error saying the snapshot creation failed. In Hyper-V I see the VM appearing but then it disappears. Something to do with the Verification Point.

[Lightboltz]

Never mind it was a permission problem with the path.

One question, my main goal is to restore a Agent Backup to a Hyper-V VM. At the moment I have to do an InstantRecovery and then a to a Migrate to Production, right? No change on doing it in 1 go?

Thanks a lot.

Guys,
Can anyone help me with this. After using Start-VBREpInstantRecovery what is the Powershell command to do a "Migrate to Production"?

Thanks

Can you try this?
I'm not sure, if it will worked. But I can't find a similar command for agent backups.

Code: Select all

$InstantRecovery = Get-VBRInstantRecovery
Start-VBRHvInstantRecoveryMigration -InstantRecovery $InstantRecovery

[Lightboltz]

I've tried that on already and I get a Plattform Endpoint error. Probably because it is an agent backup and I'm using the Start-VBREpInstantRecovery.

But it works from the console, so their should be a command from Powershell also, right?

You can contact our sales managers to get access to beta. Thanks!

As of v11a it is not available. But like I mentioned above in this thread, we plan to add support for any to hv instant recoveries in v12. Thanks!
