Latest full backup size by job

[gerwin]

Does anyone know how we can get the full backup size by job.
Then calculated based on the latest full backup.

We are using VBR v12.

Hi Gerwin,

If I correctly understood your request, to get the size of the whole backup, you need to calculate the sizes of all storages:

Code: Select all

$backup = Get-VBRBackup -Name 'Backup Job'
$storages = $backup.GetAllChildrenStorages()
$backupSize = $null
foreach ($storage in $storages) { 
  $storageSize = [Math]::Round($storage.Stats.BackupSize / 1GB, 1)
  $backupSize += $storageSize
}

$backup | select Name, @{n='SizeGB';e={$backupSize}}

To get the size of the latest full backup:

Code: Select all

$backup = Get-VBRBackup -Name 'Backup Job'
$storages = $backup.GetAllChildrenStorages()
$backupSize = $null
foreach ($storage in $storages) { 
  $storageSize = [Math]::Round($storage.Stats.BackupSize / 1GB, 1)
  $backupSize += $storageSize
}

$storages | where {$_.IsFull -eq $true} | Sort-Object -Property CreationTimeUTC -Descending | `
select PartialPath, CreationTimeUTC -First 1 

Best regards,
Oleg

Thanks Oleg,

The 2nd script works fine with backups that are not "per vm" saved. Then we only get the latest Full backup of 1 VM inside the job.
Do you know a way to filter all the VM's at "Per VM" basis job?

For Per-VM backups you need to get child backups first and then the workflow is the same:

Code: Select all

$backup = Get-VBRBackup -Name 'Backup Job'
$childBackups = $backup.FindChildBackups()
$storages = $childBackups.GetAllChildrenStorages()
...

Best regards,
Oleg
