Reports From Restore

[sarapinho]

Hi people,

Through Veeam One or Enterprise Manager is it possible to get a more detailed report about restore?

- Start time
- Duration (Can be determined if an end time is shown)
- File/object sizes
- File/object count
- MB/s throughput

Do we already have a date to have these reports?

Thanks

Hello Ramos,

Please take a look at Restore Operator Activity report. Is that what you are looking for?

Thanks.

Hi Romank,

I had already seen these reports, but it contains all the information I need as I mentioned.

Could a powershell script be an option?

Thanks

Hi Amauri,

Oleg from Powershell team here. What kind of restores you are talking about precisely?
For full vm restores, for example, you could script something like that:

Code: Select all

$restores = Get-VBRRestoreSession
foreach ($restore in $restores) {

$taskSessions = $restore.GetTaskSessions()

foreach ($task in $taskSessions) {
  $rate = [Math]::Round(($task.Process | Select-Xml -XPath "/CRestoreFilesProcessInfo").Node.Rate / 1Mb, 2)
  $processedSize = [Math]::Round(($task.Process | Select-Xml -XPath "/CRestoreFilesProcessInfo").Node.ProcessedSize / 1Gb, 2)
  $processedFilesCount = ($task.Process | Select-Xml -XPath "/CRestoreFilesProcessInfo").Node.ProcessedFilesCount
  $startTime = $restore.CreationTime
  $duration = ($restore.EndTime - $restore.CreationTime).ToString()
  $task | select Name, @{n='StartTime';e={$startTime}}, @{n='Duration';e={$duration}}, `
  @{n='ProcessedSize';e={$processedSize}}, @{n='ProcessedFilesCount';e={$processedFilesCount}}, `
  @{n='Rate';e={"$($rate) MB/s"}}
  
  }
}

Keep in mind that the code above is just a workaround as it uses unsupported methods and properties, which are a subject to change from release to release. As for the supported way via APIs, there currently isn't one to get all the info you are after, but we also have these requests noted for a while.

Best regards,
Oleg

Hi Oleg,

Sorry for the delay and thanks for the reply.

In this script, can I add the date that was chosen from the restore?

Hi Amauri,

Sorry for getting back to you so late. I think I must have forgotten to set up a notification for this topic.
If your question is still relevant, could you please elaborate on "the date chosen from the restore"? Do you mean the time restore started, stopped or else?

Thanks,
Oleg

Hi Oleg.

OK, no problem.

I think I asked the wrong question, in this script to add the point that was chosen from the restore?

Example: If the restore was from the previous day or 15 days ago?

[oleg.feoktistov]

Now I got you, thanks for the clarification. Yes, it is possible. I re-wrote the script a bit:

Code: Select all

$restores = Get-VBRRestoreSession
$oibs = Get-VBRRestorePoint
foreach ($restore in $restores) {

  $taskSession = $restore.GetTaskSessions()
  $oib = $oibs | where {$_.Id -eq $restore.OibId}
  $rate = [Math]::Round(($taskSession.Process | Select-Xml -XPath "/CRestoreFilesProcessInfo" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).Node.Rate / 1Mb, 2)
  $processedSize = [Math]::Round(($taskSession.Process | Select-Xml -XPath "/CRestoreFilesProcessInfo" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).Node.ProcessedSize / 1Gb, 2)
  $processedFilesCount = ($taskSession.Process | Select-Xml -XPath "/CRestoreFilesProcessInfo" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).Node.ProcessedFilesCount
  $startTime = $restore.CreationTime
  $duration = ($restore.EndTime - $restore.CreationTime).ToString()
  $restore | select Name, @{n='StartTime';e={$startTime}}, @{n='Duration';e={$duration}}, `
  @{n='ProcessedSize';e={$processedSize}}, @{n='ProcessedFilesCount';e={$processedFilesCount}}, `
  @{n='Rate';e={"$($rate) MB/s"}}, @{n='RestorePointTime';e={$oib.CreationTime}}
  
}

Best regards,
Oleg
