Powershell with Service Provider store

Post by TAnderson »

Is it possible to use Powershell to export a PST from Exchange O365 when you use a Service Provider to perform your backups? I try to use Get-VBOOrganization and it fails so I can't even try to do a restore.

I can export to PST from within the Explorer for Microsoft Exchange when I connect to the store from my Service Provider.

Is this more something they have to expose in order for this to work?

Hi Tim,

Could you please elaborate a bit more on what you're willing to achieve? Are you trying to export a mailbox to PST directly from the O365 via VB365?

I am looking to export a backed up email box and the in-place archive from the Veeam Service Provider repository. Many of these accounts had their licenses removed and e-Discovery is not a viable option. I am looking to automate as much as possible to export these mailboxes for archival purposes. Retaining in the Service Providers repository is not an option.

If you want to select an older restore point:
1. Connect to the service provider server with the Connect-VBOServer
1.1. Get the required restore point with the Get-VBORestorePoint

If you need the latest restore point, you can simply connect with the Start-VBOExchangeItemRestoreSession

2. Start the Exchange restore session with the Start-VBOExchangeItemRestoreSession
3. Get the required mailbox with the Get-VEXMailbox
4. Use the Export-VEXItem to export the mailbox to a PST

Except as stated in the query, Get-VBOOrganization is failing. If I can't get past step one I can't even begin to try and restore. This is what led me to believe that our Service Provider needs to turn something on for PowerShell to work.

From the Veeam console I get this
PS >get-VBOOrganization -name XXXX.onmicrosoft.com
get-VBOOrganization : Could not connect to net.tcp://127.0.0.1:9191/ArchiverAdmin. The connection attempt lasted for a
time span of 00:00:01.0001642. TCP error code 10061: No connection could be made because the target machine actively
refused it 127.0.0.1:9191.
At line:1 char:1
+ get-VBOOrganization -name XXXX.onmicrosoft.com

tions.GetVBOOrganization

We do not run the exchange backups, that is on the service provider, we have access to their repository to do restores from the GUI
