v12 Method No Longer Works

[Palmero]

Hello,

Just upgraded from v11 to 12. Then found out my PS script throwing errors. Here is the script:

Code: Select all

$Repos     = Get-VBRObjectStorageRepository -Type AmazonS3Compatible
$Repos | ForEach-Object {
        $UsedKB  = [Veeam.Backup.Core.CBackupRepository]::CalcArchiveRepositoryUsedSizeByIndices($_.Id)
        $UsedTB += [Math]::Round([float]($UsedKB/1TB),2)
    }

This worked under 11, but now I get:

Method invocation failed because [Veeam.Backup.Core.CBackupRepository] does not contain a method named 'CalcArchiveRepositoryUsedSizeByIndices'.
At line:5 char:9
+ $UsedKB = [Veeam.Backup.Core.CBackupRepository]::CalcArchive ...
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (:) [], RuntimeException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : MethodNotFound

Any suggestions or reference to documentation appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi Juan

Those methods were unsupported and may not work in a new version.
Therefore we don't have a public documentation about it. I'll forward this topic to my colleague. Maybe he can help with a new method working in V12.

Best,
Fabian

Hi Juan,

It looks like this method was deleted in v12. Try these ones instead:

Code: Select all

$repo = Get-VBRObjectStorageRepository -Type AmazonS3Compatible
$usedTotal = [Veeam.Backup.Core.CArchiveRepository]::GetTotalUsedSize($repo.Id)
$usedIndices = [Veeam.Backup.Core.CArchiveRepository]::GetUsedSizeByIndices($repo.Id)

Best regards,
Oleg

Hi Oleg,

That seems to work. Thank you.

Where are you getting these from? Is there any documentation I can refer to for future reference?

Again, thanks.

Hi Juan,

Usually I get these by digging source code or searching through imported .NET assemblies our powershell module relies on.
These methods are not documented, unfortunately, as we cannot provide documentation for what's not supported and can be used only as a workaround.

Best regards,
Oleg

$usedTotal = [Veeam.Backup.Core.CArchiveRepository]::GetTotalUzedSize($repo.Id)
$usedIndices = [Veeam.Backup.Core.CArchiveRepository]::GetUzedSizeByIndices($repo.Id)
[/code]

It appears there is a typo in the word "used" on these function calls. Besides that, they seem to work as intended.

Thank you for pointing it out! Fixed the typos.
