Get job failed or warning reason

[matteu]

Hello,

I would like to get why a job is failing.
I make something working if the reason is because of VM with this code :

Code: Select all

$Jobs = Get-VBRJob
$ResultVeeamBRJob += Foreach ($job in $jobs)
{
    Write-Log -Type Information -Message "Processing job $($Job.Name) from $VBRServer"
    Try {
        $LastRun = $Job.FindLastCompletedSession().Endtime.toshortdatestring()
    }
    Catch
    {
        $LastRun = "Never"
    }
    [PSCustomObject]@{
        VBRServer  = $VBRServer
        Name       = $Job.Name 
        Type       = $Job.JobType
        LastResult = $Job.GetLastResult()
        LastRun    = $LastRun
    }
}

#Job with failed or error on last result
$JobToProcess= $Jobs | where {$_.GetLastResult() -ne "Success" -and $_.GetLastResult() -ne "None"}
if ($JobToProcess) {
    foreach ($Job in $JobToProcess)
    {
        #If the issue is because of one VM and not the job itself (like no VM to backup on the job because it has been removed)
        if ($Job.FindLastSession().gettasksessions())
        { 
            foreach ($VM in $Job.FindLastSession().gettasksessions() | Where {$_.Status -ne "Success"})
            {
                [PSCustomObject]@{
                    Job = $Job.Name
                    VM = $VM.Name
                    Reason = $VM.info.reason
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

However, I don't find how to do if the job is in warning state because it can't sent an email at the end or if you create a job, add manually a VM, remove the VM from the hypervisor but not in the job. The jobs will say I don't find the VM but I don't know where to find it with powershell...

Thanks for your help

Hi matteu,

Unfortunately those elements from the Job Statistics Windows are not retrievable by supported methods.

You can use the unsupported workaround here to retrieve such information from the Logger class.
