Get info about Move backup job

[GabesVirtualWorld]

Hi
In the details of a "Move backup" job I can get info like: "19-5-2025 15:52:23 Succeeded 31 backups (4,6 TB) moved at 916 MB/s 1:28:03
". I can't however get this info through powershell or the API.

Get-VBRMoveBackupSession -id c55bc44b-9241-4948-b5ad-787a7a517d4d

Gives:

Code: Select all

and with: Get-VBRSession -id c55bc44b-9241-4948-b5ad-787a7a517d4d

I get

But that is all the details I can get. What would be the next step to see how much data has been moved?

Hi GabesVirtualWorld,

Regrettably, there are no supported or unsupported methods to retrieve this information at this time.

We can get a listing of the backups moved/copied with the following unsupported method:

Code: Select all

$sessLite = Get-VBRSession -Type PerVMMoveBackup | Sort -Property CreationTime -Descending #Use 'PerVmCopyBackup' for Copy Backup sessions
$exampleSess = $sessLite[0] #check most recent session
$result = [Veeam.Backup.DBManager.CDBManager]::Instance.MoveCopyTaskSessions.GetByJobSessionId($exampleSess.id)
$result | select id, jobsessionid, objectname, objectid |fl

#results truncated a bit for readability

Unfortunately the speed statistics are logged a bit uniquely and there isn't really a graceful way to retrieve this via Powershell at this time, so will just be the names and the result for now.

Ah that is too bad. We're decommissioning a storage array by moving jobs and management wants to know what the progress is..... few Petabytes to go
