Tracking Restore Jobs with Powershell

[mboswell]

Hi all,

Have a question about tracking the status of a running restore job using powershell. I'm using Get-VBRRestoreSession and then looking for the completion percentage. I found a couple of properties that look like they might be what I want, but during the job run, they remain at 0. Specifically, I'm looking at "BaseProgress" and "SessionInfo.CompletionPercentage"

What might I be missing?

Thanks,

Matt

Looked at it a bit and it appears one has to grab generic session object data for this -

Code: Select all

foreach ($restoSession in Get-VBRRestoreSession)
{
    Write-Host $restoSession.Name
    foreach ($task in $restoSession.GetTaskSessions())
    {
        $session = Get-VBRSession -Id $task.JobSessId.ToString()
        Write-Host "   " $session.Progress.ToString()
    }
}

Hope this helps.
