Set VBRJobScriptOptions

[andrewamason]

So I'm at a loss, We are trying to setup a post job script that will run on all of our Veeam jobs. Here is what I have so far:

$postscript = New-VBRjobscriptOptions -PostScriptEnabled -PostCommand "Powershell.exe -File C:\*****"
$job = Get-VBRJob

When I print the value of postscript all of the values are correct. However, I cannot figure out how to apply this setting to the backup jobs I though it could be set by using the Set-VBRJobOptions command however I get the following message when I try this: Set-VBRJobOptions -Job $job -Options $postscript

Set-VBRJobOptions : Cannot bind parameter 'Options'. Cannot convert the
"Veeam.Backup.PowerShell.Infos.VBRJobScriptOptions" value of type "Veeam.Backup.PowerShell.Infos.VBRJobScriptOptions"
to type "Veeam.Backup.Model.CJobOptions".

Do i need to convert this object to a CJobOptions object? If so how can i do that?
Has anyone had any better luck setting a post job script? Is there a different set of commands I can use to set these parameters? from the PowerShell reference there doesn't appear to be a set command for the VBRJobScriptOptions object....

Any help would be appreciated.

The mentioned cmdlet has to do with tape jobs, not with ordinary backup ones.

In order to change post-job activity settings on existing job, try the following script:

Code: Select all

asnp VeeamPSSnapin
$Job = Get-VBRJob | ?{$_.Name –eq “Name of your Job”}
$jo = $job.GetOptions()
$jo.PostJobCommand.Enabled = $True
$jo.PostJobCommand.Commandline = "c:\script.bat"
$job.SetOptions($jo)

Thanks.

Thanks! I ended up making a few modifications to what you sent as i needed to be able to modify all of our VBR jobs but, I've got it all configured now. These options didn't work for me.

Code: Select all

$jo.PostJobCommand.Enabled = $True
$jo.PostJobCommand.Commandline = "c:\script.bat"

I was able to find the correct options though; Here's what I ended up using:

Code: Select all

asnp VeeamPSSnapin
$VeeamJobs = Get-VBRJob
$VeeamJobs | Format-Table -AutoSize

foreach ($row in $VeeamJobs) {

$job = Get-VBRJob | ?{$_.Name –eq $row.Name}
$jo = $job.GetOptions()
$jo.JobScriptCommand.PostScriptEnabled = $True
$jo.JobScriptCommand.PostScriptCommandLine = "Powershell.exe -File C:\script.ps1"
$job.SetOptions($jo)
}


Thanks for all your help! I hope this helps others in the future too.

Correct, something has changed since the time when I wrote that script. However, I'm glad it gave your the right directions. Thanks for sharing the final result; appreciated.
