Windows PS and veeampssnapin discrepancies

[tomcec]

Hello, I am trying to automate a sort of check about wich VMs has been backed up in the last 24h. The point is that I have a different output from commands when I invoke them inside powershell launched from veeam console and when I invoke them from a Windows Powershell. Here is what I get when I run it from Veeam PS:

Code: Select all

PS C:\Users\veeamservice> get-vbrjob -name Job_SCSI0

Job Name                  Type            State      Last Result  Description
--------                  ----            -----      -----------  -----------
Job_SCSI0                 VMware Backup   Stopped    Warning      Created by VEEAMBS01\veeamservice at 2/3/2012 3:40:46

and the more verbose output when I run it from windows PS:

Code: Select all

PS C:\Users\tcecchi> Add-PSSnapin VeeamPSSnapIn
PS C:\Users\tcecchi> get-vbrjob -name Job_SCSI0

Do you know how I can have the same output. I am trying to automate this so I am going to put this commands in a .bat file where I will load the veeam snapin and I want to have the "standard veeam output" in this environment as well.

Thanks for your help.

You can format the output like so

Code: Select all

Get-VBRJob -Name "Job Name" | Select @{Name="Job Name"; Expression = {$_.Name}},
@{Name="Type"; Expression = {$_.JobType}}, @{Name="State"; Expression = {$_.GetLastState()}},
@{Name="Last Result"; Expression = {$_.Info.LatestStatus}}, Description | ft -AutoSize
