As-Build Report Veeam - Guide for an easy installation

Can you run the following commands so I can determine which cmdlet is causing the error?
 

# Connect to VBR server

Connect-VBRServer -Server veeam-backup.domain.local -User "username" -Password "password"


Get-VBRNASServer



Get-VBRUnstructuredServer



Get-VBRProtectionGroup

Each proxy is in a workgroup not in an ActiveDirectory so yes different access credentials.

Thank you for the content. I will be adding these recommendations to make it easier to use the report. I am working on a GUI made in C# for the AsBuiltReport.Veeam.VBR project that allows to generate these reports in an easier way.

Additionally I have been working on improving the report content and also adding support for drawing VEEAM B&R infrastructure diagrams.

Stay tuned...

Hi @jcolonfzenpr 

It is really impressive. Did you finish the tools I can’t wait to try it.

Thanks

Hi,

I tried to generate the report by following all the steps in the above article also I downloaded all the module required but still stuck in below error 

New-AsBuiltReport : The term 'Document' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable
program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [Write-Error], WriteErrorException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.WriteErrorException,New-AsBuiltReport

I tried to troubleshoot and check lot of sites but still no luck, so what I am missing ?

As I told you I copied the example command and changed only the red parts thats why I am sure that it is the same. I spent more than 3 hours to figure it out but with no luck even I restarted the process from the beginning step by step also without luck.  

 

Can you run the following commands so I can determine which cmdlet is causing the error?
 

# Connect to VBR server

Connect-VBRServer -Server veeam-backup.domain.local -User "username" -Password "password"


Get-VBRNASServer



Get-VBRUnstructuredServer



Get-VBRProtectionGroup

Hi Christopher,

When this error appears, does the script abruptly terminate without generating the report or is it completely generated and it is just a warning message?

Have a nice day.

Based on the error your syntax seems incorrect.  Check the examples above in the OP and model your commands from there.  I have done the same thing many times and need to remind myself to put the syntax in the proper format.

Sounds good.  Hopefully the OP will reply when he has time.
