Query Source VM for FileCopy

[Talom]

I'm working on a script to query all BackupSessions of the last 24 hours. The result is written to XML.
I get the SourcePath and TargetPath of a FileCopy without any Problems, but i need the Source VM too.
Does anyone know where i can get this information?
I took a look at the Job-Object already, but i couldn't find anything.

I get the SourcePath and TargetPath of a FileCopy without any Problems, but i need the Source VM too.

Can you elaborate on the selected portion? Are you talking here about file copy job and "source" server the corresponding files are copied from? Thanks.

I call

Code: Select all

Get-VBRBackupSession | Where-Object { $_.EndTime -ge $date}

For every session i get the TaskSessions and there i can get the ObjectName for every TaskSession. But where can i find the Source Hostname where the files are copied from?

The Target Host would be nice to have, too, but is not necessary.

Let me rephrase my question - what is the type of the job? File copy one? And you want to get information about its source and target, right? Thanks.

Thats exactly what i want.
It is a File Copy

Sorry for misunderstanding

[veremin]

Can you try the following example and see whether it meets your expectations?

Code: Select all

$FileCopyJob = Get-VBRJob -name "Name of your File Copy Job"
$FileCopyJob.GetObjectsInJob().object.name

Thanks.

Thanks for this, but its not really what i wanted.

Code: Select all

$FileCopyJob = Get-VBRJob -name "File Copy Job 1"
    $jobObjects = $FileCopyJob.GetObjectsInJob()
    foreach($obj in $jobObjects)
    {

        write-host "OBJECT: "  $obj.Name
    }

Output:

Code: Select all

OBJECT:   C:\Users\Administrator\job-definitions.xml
OBJECT:   <datacenterRef>datacenter-21</datacenterRef><datacenterName>srzc-test</datacenterName><datacenterPath>srzc-test</datacenterPath><hostRef>host-83</hostRef><datastoreRef>datastore-84</datastor
eRef><datastoreGuid>52de3a7e-49e03574-dce2-6805ca1f766d</datastoreGuid><FullName>[datastore-vm8-1] rzc-dt-w8k-ts90/vmware.log</FullName>

The first object is a local FileCopy, now i got the Source Path. I already have this info. What i expect is: "This Server" or "Name of the VeeamServer"
The second one is a log-File from my ESX Host. I expected the name of the ESX host "rzc-dt-esx"

I guess it can be in the VBRTaskSession Object. But IntelliSense is buggy so i don't get a list of members

[nefes]

In that case you can use

Code: Select all

$FileCopyJob.GetObjectsInJob().object.GetHost().Name

In general, it is always useful to use Get-Member command to find available methods and properties.
For example in your case it will be

Code: Select all

$FileCopyJob.GetObjectsInJob().object | gm
