How to use Exchange cmdlets

[livdvee]

Hi,

I've loaded the Veeam powershell editor via the B&R console gui and imported the exchange module. But I still cannot run commands like Get-VEXCommand as they are not recognised.

I can run get-vbr command but cant get the exchange specific commands.

Im trying to write a script to automate multiple mailbox restores.

Thanks.

Hi,

Did you import all the modules before trying to execute the VEX cmdlet?

Thanks!

[livdvee]

I imported Veeam.Exchange.PowerShell

But not

Import-Module Veeam.Sharepoint.PowerShell

Import-Module Veeam.Oracle.PowerShell

Import-Module Veeam.SQL.PowerShell

as I want to use the exchange specific cmdlets

however, I noticed if I try to import the last three, they are not available for import.

Ah, I didn't notice it in your original post, sorry for that. You've tried doing this via Veeam B&R console, do you see the same result for Veeam.Exchange.PowerShell when just starting the PS snap-in in Windows and registering all manually?

Hi, thanks for your reply and for taking the time to assist me.

Yes I get the same result im afraid.

Try to include this command

Add-PSSnapin VeeamPSSnapin

Hi thanks for your reply.

Yes i'm following the notes here: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backu ... l?ver=95u4

So I've already completed this step.

[Vitaliy S.]

Are you performing these steps on the backup server or in a remote computer with just a backup console installed?

[livdvee]

Im on the server with Veeam B&R on and have run run Powershell from within the software, and just tried running it from a normal powershell session.

[Vitaliy S.]

Ok, do you see the VEX module by running this command Get-Module? This would should you if this module is registered or not. If not, this would explain why cmdlet is not recognized and I would suggest contacting our support team for quick WebEx session to sort it out.

[livdvee]

Yes as per my first post I still cannot run commands like Get-VEXCommand as they are not recognised.

Thanks ill open a ticket

Hi - How was this issue resolved?

I'm experiencing the same exact issue where we're able to add the VeeamPSSnapIn using "Add-PSSnapIn" command, but we cannot add any of the following modules using the Import-Module command:

Import-Module Veeam.Exchange.PowerShell
Import-Module Veeam.Sharepoint.PowerShell
Import-Module Veeam.Oracle.PowerShell
Import-Module Veeam.SQL.PowerShell

The error message displayed is:

Import-Module : The specified module 'Veeam.Exchange.PowerShell' was not loaded because no valid module file was found in any module directory.

We have following the exact steps as the OP did also. Our PSVersion is v5.1

Any assistance is appreciated. Thanks!
