Get Datadomain credentials

[matteu]

Hello,

What is the cmdline to find the credentials used on a datadomain repository ?

Thanks for your answer.

Thanks for your answer, unfortunately it's not what I want exactly ^^.
I'm sorry maybe I didn't say it correctly.

I just need the account used and not the password.

I don't have a data domain in my lab but perhaps this will work:

Code: Select all

$repo = Get-VBRBackupRepository -Name "repository-name"
$repo.Credentials

[matteu]

Should be fine but unfortunately it's not

For SMB I used this : (Get-VBRCredentials | Where-Object {$_.id -eq (Get-VBRBackupRepository -name "xxxxxx").ShareCredsId.guid}).name

There is maybe an other way but I'm not sure ^^.
For Datadomain, ShareCredsId = 00000000..... so it's not working

[chris.arceneaux]

This should do the trick. With Data Domain, the credential isn't specified at the repository. With that in mind, we need to look at the Linux host that holds the repository:

Code: Select all

$creds = Get-VBRCredentials
$repo = Get-VBRBackupRepository -Name "repository-name"
$server = $repo.Host
$ssh = $server.GetSshCreds()
$creds | Where-Object {$_.Id -eq $ssh.CredsId}

Hello,

Thanks for your answer.
I just test it now and it's not working

$creds = Get-VBRCredentials -> OK
$repo = Get-VBRBackupRepository -Name "REPO_Datadomain_PX" -> OK
$server = $repo.Host -> Result is VBR server object. Not sure it's what we want ?
$ssh = $server.GetSshCreds() -> Empty because it's VBR server I guess
$creds | Where-Object {$_.Id -eq $ssh.CredsId} -> Empty

[chris.arceneaux]

As you surmised, the sample code is failing because $repo.Host is the VBR server object and not the Data Domain.

Perhaps @oleg.feoktistov has the answer

[matteu]

Yes.
i usually try some different commands before I post here ans very often oleg gives me the answer

Hi guys,

Looks like data domain view doesn't belong to the CBackupRepository class, so there isn't any obvious way to get creds for this type. But hey, look at the workaround I found:

Code: Select all

$dd = Get-VBRBackupRepository -Name "Data domain repo"
[Veeam.Backup.DBManager.CDBManager]::Instance.DataDomainRepositoryServers.FindDataDomainServerForRepository($dd.Id)

Credentials id used should be in the output.

Best regards,
Oleg

It works fine with this cmdlet ^^

Thanks
