assign specific proxies to all replica jobs

[liorme]

hi, i'm unfamiliar with veeam's shell
i have vmware backups and replication jobs

i have multiple proxies. i want to assign 2 specific proxies to all replication jobs (only replication jobs) at once
what's the correct syntax for that? thank you

Hi,

First, you need to assign these 2 proxies with a discriminator. Something, that would distinguish them from other proxies.
For example, 'Replica Proxy' in Description field.
Then, using Set-VBRViReplicaJob cmdlet, you can construct something like this:

Code: Select all

$replicas = Get-VBRJob | Where-Object {$_.JobType -eq 'Replica'}
$replicaProxies = Get-VBRViProxy | Where-Object {$_.Description -match 'Replica Proxy'}
foreach ($replica in $replicas) {
    Set-VBRViReplicaJob -Job $replica -SourceProxy $replicaProxies -TargetProxy $replicaProxies
}

Just make sure that both proxies are suitable for Source and Target proxy roles simultaneously.
Check this page for more information on proxy selection.

Thanks,
Oleg

Hi,

Then use the code below:

Code: Select all

$replicas = Get-VBRJob | Where-Object {$_.JobType -eq 'Replica'}
foreach ($replica in $replicas) {
    $jobOptions = Get-VBRJobOptions -Job $replica
    $jobOptions.JobOptions.SourceProxyAutoDetect = $True
    $jobOptions.JobOptions.TargetProxyAutoDetect = $True 
    Set-VBRJobOptions -Job $replica -Options $jobOptions
}

Best regards,
Oleg
