Get total + used space for Veeam repository

[darren.flatman]

Hello,

I want to create a script that generates an alert when a repository is below 10% free space.

The command Get-VBRBackupRepository is the only cmd that I can find that would get this info but it does not include "capacity" and "free" properties.

Anyone had this problem before or know if there is an alternative to Get-VBRBackupRepository?

Seems to have everything else -

Hi Darren,

Before v11 these properties were contained in CBackupRepository.Info property. In v11 we introduced some underlying changes, so these properties were moved to CRepositoryContainer class. You can find the detailes here. For object storages it gets a bit tricky, I'd advise to check this post.

Please note that all the solutions in the referenced topics are considered as workarounds and are not supported.

Thanks,
Oleg

Thanks I got the info from a reply on that thread

the script I am using is -

Code: Select all

$Repos = get-vbrbackuprepository
$RepoDetails = foreach ($repo in $Repos) {
   
        $Name      = $Repo.Name
        $ID        = $Repo.ID
        $Size      = $Repo.GetContainer().CachedTotalSpace.InBytes / 1GB
        $FreeSpace = $Repo.GetContainer().CachedFreeSpace.InBytes / 1GB
        $10 = $Size * 0.1
    if ($FreeSpace -le $10)

     {
     write-host "<-Start Result->"
     write-host $Name "Warning 10% storage remaining"
     write-host "<-End Result->"
     exit 1
     }

     else

     {
     write-host "<-Start Result->"
     write-host "Storage good"
     write-host "<-End Result->"
     exit 0
     }


    }
  

Its for our RMM tool to raise a ticket if the repo has less than 10%, if anyone reading this wants to use should work
