Feature request - LatestStatus not Null if Job is created

Post by Andreas Neufert »

Hi Veeam Dev Team,

on behalf of a customer, I would love to ask you for a small enhancement.


Normally you can monitor if a Job (Backup/Replication) runs by .Info.LatestStatus .
If the Job runs actually this Status is Null.

But if you create a new Job (backup/replication) this status is also Null.

So if you try to build a script that Monitors if Job runs actually and then start the Job only if .Info.LatestStatus is Null the fresh created Job will never run.

A) Are there any readable Information that can be used to Monitor if a Job didn´t run for the first time?
B) If not can you please add .Info.LatestStatus = "Never started" or something similar to .Info.LatestStatus

Hi Andy,

Not sure how useful it will be for you, but you can use Veeam ONE v6.5 to check current job status (running/failed/warning/never triggered).

Thanks!

Hi Vitaliy,

I think still now there is no powershell Integration for ONE. Am I right?

Have you tried (get-vbrjob -name X).FindLastSession()? New jobs return null but jobs that have run or are running return a Veeam.Backup.Core.CBackupSession object.
