Get latest immutable restore point

[efd121]

This works to get the latest restore point from a backup job but I want to find the latest restore point from the AWS immutable backup.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

$backup = Get-VBRBackup -Name 'BackupJob'
$RestorePoints = Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name 'SERVER' -Backup $backup | Sort-Object -Property CreationTime -Descending

Hello,
I'm not sure whether we have that information available with PowerShell (my colleague will answer on that).

But maybe your intention is just to find out the immutable time in general. We are working on that for V11. The backups view will have a new column that shows the "immutable until" time.

Best regards,
Hannes

Hi David,

To be precise, in regards to restore points immutability is a property of their storages rather than restore points themselves.
So, you need to get storage available for particular restore point to know which one is immutable:

Code: Select all

$backup = Get-VBRBackup -Name 'Backup to SOBR'
$restorePoints = Get-VBRRestorePoint -Backup $backup
foreach ($restorePoint in $restorePoints) {
   $restorePoint.GetStorage() | select @{n='Name';e={$_.PartialPath.ToString()}}, IsImmutable, ImmutableTillUTC, ExternalContentMode | fl
}

ExternalContentMode is a property, which marks the tier your storage is located on. Though, it reads 'External' only if storage was moved to capacity, not copied, it might also help you get the idea.

Thanks,
Oleg

That sounds great, currently it's a lot of trial and error for us to get rid of some old backups.
