Tape Backup Job options for Media Pool

Post by David_PBHK »

Support case ID: 00461077

Hi all,

As I want to change the media pool of tape backup on specific day, I want to use script to change the "Media Pool for full backups". But I can't find the job parameter in google or veeam doc, and I don't know how to list the joboptions in veeam powershell console. Please help.

$Job = Get-VBRTapeJob -Name $JobName
$JobNameObjectOptions = $Job.getoptions()
$JobNameObjectOptions.Options."Media Pool for full backups" = "Another Medial Pool"

After searching, I find something, but when the job start, it seem to be rollback to gui setting (use back monthlymediapool when backup job start).
$dailymediapool_id = "d50a5cf9-a9fa-4a8a-89df-33a0267f4bcb"
$monthlymediapool_id = "9b069ef8-d82b-441b-88dd-dd00519da652"

$Job = Get-VBRTapeJob -name "Backup To Tape Job"
$Options = $Job.GetOptions()
$Options.options.rootnode.tapejobbackupoptions.tapefullmediapoolid = $dailymediapool_id
$Job.SetOptions($Options)

Hi, David.

It seems that for now media pool can’t be set via PowerShell, at least, I couldn’t find a way how it can be done. Though, thank you for the feedback; we will consider further snap-in improvements in one of the future releases/patches.

Thanks.

Currently, in PS snap-in many tape job settings can be only specified only during job creation. However, as mentioned, above, we are planning to improve this functionality in one of the next releases.

Thanks.
