Powershell to set App Group Startup Options

[y1008946]

Hi, I have a powershell script to add VMs to an App Group.

Code: Select all

Add-PSSnapin VeeamPSSnapin

$ibfOibs = (Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name "DOMCNTRL01")

Add-VSBViApplicationGroup –Name “App Group - Offsite Backups” –RestorePoint $ibfOibs

Is it possible to change the startup up options when adding the VM to the app group?

I would like to change 'maximum allowed boot time' when adding the VM

Thanks

If my memory serves me well, the startup , as well as, other App Group options can't be currently changed via PS. However, I will doublecheck it on Monday, once I'm in the office. Thanks.

Yep, I was right. Currently, there is no way to specify/change VM start-up options of Application Group. Thanks.

Hi, I've got a powershell script which creates an application group and add some VMs.

Is there a way I can set the VMs to have different start up times to the default ones given?

Also is it possible to give roles to the VMs through Powershell?

Many Thanks


This is my Powershell script:

Code: Select all

Add-PSSnapin VeeamPSSnapin

Sync-VBRBackupRepository -Repository (Get-VBRBackupRepository -Name "BackupData")

$ibfOibs = (Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name "DOM01")
$ibfOibs += (Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name "APP01")
$ibfOibs += (Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name "EXCH01")

Add-VSBViApplicationGroup –Name “App Group - Offsite Backups” –RestorePoint $ibfOibs

Currently, the mentioned settings aren't configurable via PowerShell. Thanks.

Allow us to change the default startup options - specifically maximum allowed boot time. Or at least let us change it per job via powershell.

Trying to do automatic sure backup jobs from powershell and I have certain vm's that fail because they do not boot in the 10 min time window, would like to be able to change that value via script or default settings so I don't have to create and run the jobs manually.

Anyway we can get these settings configurable via Powershell?

I do not understand
how to use New-VBRApplicationGroupStartupOptions (https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backu ... l?ver=95u4)
to create Application Group with specify Bootup Options ?

[veremin]

The cmdlet creates VM startup settings for staged restore and does not have any association with Application Group object. Thanks!

Is this option going to be available in a future release?

[veremin]

It will be available in one of the next future releases - timeframe for its support will be determined later. Thanks!
