Calculate amount of data change

[vmtech123]

Is there a way to get the data change or transferred for all incremental backups. or backups in general?

I'd like to calculate the total change of all my jobs in a day to somewhat predict what the data change rate would be if I set up a cloud repo.

I have quite a few backup jobs

I'll add. I used the following script, but it's too much. I just want the incremental data not including my tape jobs and copy jobs.

Code: Select all

$sesion= Get-VBRBackupSession | where {$_.JobType -eq "Backup"}| where {$_.jobld -eq $Job.ld.Guid}
$Backups= $sesion| where {$_.Result -ne "None"}| Measure-Object|select Count
$totalBackups= $Backups -replace "@{Count=","" -replace "}","" 


#Total of Data transfered x Month

$tasksession= Get-VBRBackupSession | where {$_.JobType -eq "Backup"}| where {$_.jobld -eq $Job.ld.Guid}| Get-VBRTaskSession
$transfer= $tasksession| select @{N='TransferedSizeGB';E={[Math]::round([Decimal]($tasksession.Progress.TransferedSize |Measure-Object -Sum).Sum/1TB, 2)} }|select -First 1
$totalSize= $transfer -replace "@{TransferedSizeGB=","" -replace "}",""

Write-Host "Total Backups x Month is: $totalBackups Backups" 
Write-Host "Total Transfered Backup Size x Month is: $totalSize TB"

Hi,

Try adding IsFullMode - eq $false to your sessions filter:

Code: Select all

$sessions = Get-VBRBackupSession | where {$_.JobType -eq "Backup" -and $_.Info.IsFullMode -eq $false}| `
where {$_.jobld -eq $Job.ld.Guid} 

Keep in mind though that it won't work in case with agent management jobs.
You would need to get child sessions using unsupported .NET methods to make IsFullMode reflect correct value:

Code: Select all

$sessions = [Veeam.Backup.Core.CBackupSession]::GetByJob($job.Id)
$child = $sessions.GetChildSessions()
$child | where {$_.IsFullMode -eq $false}

Further on, the stats for agent management job will be in a child backup session, not in a task session. Thus, you'll need to access $child.Progress to get them.

Thanks,
Oleg
