Password protection configuration backup

[matteu]

Hello,

How can I know with powershell if password protection is enabled or not ?
I don't find any way to know it.
Thanks for your help.

Hi @matteu

It's a property EncryptionOptions on object returned by Get-VBRConfigurationBackupJob cmdlet.

Code: Select all

PS C:\Users\Administrator> Get-VBRConfigurationBackupJob


Enabled             : True
Repository          : Veeam.Backup.Core.S3CompatibleRepositoryAdapter
ScheduleOptions     : Daily

EncryptionOptions   : True  #This property

Hello,

Thanks for your answer but I'm not sure we talked about the same thing.
I saw this cmdlet but doesn't seems to return what I want.
Encryption is just for the backup configuration to be encrypted.

What I want to know if it's password lost protection is enabled or not.

You can have encryption enabled but no enterprise manager -> password lost protection will not be enabled.

Hi @matteu,

This info gets pulled from the table that Get-VBRConfigurationBackupJob cmdlet doesn't access. I'll note it as a feature request. Meanwhile, try the workaround:

Code: Select all

[Veeam.Backup.Core.CCryptoKey]::IsLossProtectionEnabled()

Best regards,
Oleg

Ah, indeed I misunderstood the request. Thank you Oleg for the save

It works perfectly.
