Listing the size of OneDrive and Teams objects

Post by APangF1 »

The Veeam Explorers for OneDrive and Teams display the size information for each file in each User or Team object.

Has anyone seen a Powershell script that can collate this size information for each OneDrive user or Teams site object ?

Thanks

Hello Albert

May I ask the use case for knowing the exact size per OneDrive?
Unfortunately we don't track size information. There is no command to iterate through all objects to calculate the size for each user.

Depending on the size, we have to decide whether we can justify protecting users' OneDrive data.

Also how much of the data is more than 1 year, 2 years, etc. old.

Hi Albert

Thanks for providing the use case.
We have it noted as a feature request to track the size of every source object in the backup.
But there is no news we can share today about an ETA or in which version we will release this feature.
Also how much of the data is more than 1 year, 2 years, etc. old.
You mean knowing the age per single item? We also don't track this information. I don't see a PowerShell command to list all items with their size and date.
Depending on the size, we have to decide whether we can justify protecting users' OneDrive data.
As a workaround, I suggest getting the OneDrive size from the source infrastructure. That way you will find out if you have larger OneDrives protected.

With that report you can start a discussion if OneDrive needs to be protected or not:
