PowerShell number of Protected VMs

Post by andershh »

Hello.

I wondered if there is a way to gather the number of VMs you currently have protected as in this screenshot below:

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

In your case (Cloud) VMs that have at least one restore point are considered to be protected, no matter how old that restore is. Hence all you need to do is get total list of retore points, select by VM names, get unique and count lines. Pleas try the following code and check if the number matches:

Code: Select all

(Get-VBRRestorePoint | select {$_.VmName} -uniq).Count
Btw, have you considered using Veeam ONE reports to get the statistics about your environment?

Thank you.

Since we're talking here about Service Provider's site, I don't think that tenants restore points are reflected there, thus, Get-VBRRestorePoint would return either local restore points created by SP himself or nothing.

In order to achieve your goal, you should query CloudTenant entity or, more specifically, VMCount property:

Code: Select all

(Get-VBRCloudTenant).VMCount 
Thanks.

Managed VMs Count

Post by LeslieBNS9 »

Anyone know how to get the "Managed VMs" count through PowerShelll?

I tried the below command from a previous post. But the counts are coming back different.

Code: Select all

(Get-VBRRestorePoint | select {$_.VmName} -uniq).Count

Hi,

May I ask you what were the numbers it returned/you expected?

Thanks

Here's what I'm looking for... Image

With this command I'm getting 609.

Code: Select all

(Get-VBRRestorePoint | select {$_.VmName} -uniq).Count
I added a filter for IsLicensed and I'm getting 562 with this command.

Code: Select all

(Get-VBRRestorePoint | Where {$_.IsLicensed -eq $true}  | select {$_.Name} -uniq).Count

Aren't there any imported restore points among those listed? You can double check it, using the following one-liner:

Code: Select all

(Get-VBRRestorePoint | ?{($_.FindBackup().name) -notlike "*_imported*"}).count
Thanks.
