v7 Stop BCJ - Start File2Tape - StartBCJ

[Andreas Neufert]

Wrote this code for a customer. Maybe helpful for others.

Code: Select all

#Input
$JobNameBCJ = "BCJ-Job"
$JobNameTape = "F2T-Job"

#Load Veeam PowerShell Snapin
Add-PSSnapin -Name VeeamPSSnapIn -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

#ReadOut BCJ Object
$CopyJob = Get-VBRJob -Name $JobNameBCJ

#Disable BCJ Scheduler
$CopyJob.DisableScheduler()

#Wait till BCJ is stopped
while ( -not( $CopyJob.IsStopped() ) ) { }

#Read out File2Tape Job Object
$TapeJob = Get-VBRTapeJob -Name $JobNameTape

#Start File2Tape Job
Start-VBRJob -Job $TapeJob

#Enable BCJ Scheduler again
$CopyJob.EnableScheduler()

#Finis

If you want to schedule it with windows, you can find herean configuration example.

If you can not execute it, please check this entry.

In some cases you want to add all files from the folder (not only the changed ones) on tape. For example if you set copy job to 7 (daily run) and then backup the whole chain (all 7 days) to tape.

Then use:

Code: Select all

Start-VBRJob -Job $TapeJob -FullBackup
