Check back copy job is disable or enable

[shuji]

Hi there,

Is there any way to check a back copy job is disabled or enabled?
I need to know the status of the job, so I can run the rest of the script smoothly.

Thank you

Ryan

Try the following example:

Code: Select all

$Job = Get-VBRJob -Name "Name of backup to tape job"
$Job.info.IsScheduleEnabled

Thanks.

Just a further question:
what is difference between $Job.EnableScheduler() and Enable-VBRJob ?

Thanks

Both internal method and commandlet work exactly the same. Thanks.

The following will see if the job is stopped (disabled) or not (running):

Code: Select all

$job = Get-VBRJob -Name "BACKUPCOPYJOBNAME"

if (!$job.IsStopped()) {
    Write-Output "Enabled"
} else { 
    Write-Output "Disabled"
}

Hi

I need help getting all disabled VBR Jobs and displaying them together with the job description. I cannot find a state or "isDisabled" member of a VBRJOB or VBRSession, and "isStopped" applies to all stopped jobs - which are all that are not failed.

Thanks for your help

Try the example provided above. As to description, you can find it here:

Code: Select all

asnp VeeamPSSnapin
$Job = Get-VBRJob -name "Name of your job"
$Job.info.Description

Thanks.

Thanks for your reply.
Somehow I still cannot get it to work:

Using this

Code: Select all

$job = Get-VBRJob -name "Backup Job Name"
$Job.info.IsScheduleEnabled()

I get the error
[Veeam.Backup.Model.CDbBackupJobInfo] does not contain a method named 'IsScheduleEnabled'.

When I try this

Code: Select all

if (!$job.IsStopped()) {
    Write-Output "Enabled"
} else { 
    Write-Output "Disabled"
}

I get "Disabled" for all Jobs currently not running. But I would need only the disabled ones.

I then tried something like this

Code: Select all

$jobs = Get-VBRJob |Get-VBRJobScheduleOptions| where{$_.NextRun -eq ""} 

Which seems to work, but I am not good enough on powershell to then check the VBRJob Members against anything - I only have the JobSchedule Object in this case.

Any help appreciated

Try to rewrite original script slightly:

Code: Select all

Get-VBRJob | where {$_.IsScheduleEnabled -eq $False} | select name, {$_.info.description}

Thanks.
