Reporting Replica Status

[HaDeLe]

Hi,

I need to give a report on the status of replication of every VM. So this question goes two-fold:
1) to show the last succeeded Replica
2) to show every VM that is NOT replicated (comparing to vCenter 1)

For the first part I am having some luck with

Code: Select all

Get-Replica ¦ % { $_.getLastReplicaOibs() } | Sort-Object -Descending "creationtime" 

but it still gives some issues with a replica that is in warning state due to an 'incomplete'



For the second script I have no clue how to get it even started.

Hi Hans, do you have Veeam ONE deployed? If so, you can use its predefined report called "Protected VMs" that seems to provide information you're after. Thanks.

If only it was that simple

No we do not have VeeamONE but we do have SCOM Management Pack. The problem with that is that the SCOM reports are all job-based and not VM-based.

Then, I would recommend checking this thread that contains working script examples. One thing you will have to change is the sessions' collection, because the referenced thread talks about backups, not replicas. You can try to get only replica sessions, using the following code:

Code: Select all

Get-VBRBackupSession | where {$_.JobType -eq "Replica"}

Thanks.

UPDATE: the Protected VMs report is also available in SCOM and actually does pretty much the trick very well
The only problem is that the report, even when choosing Replica jobs, still shows "Backup" as the title everywhere. But I'm sure Alec & Teeam will get that sorted out one day.

I've passed this information to the right individual. Thanks for the heads-up!
