Enable Snapshot-Only Jobs for Secondary Storage Array for Pure Storage FlashArray with This Post-Job Script

VBR integration for storage systems supports several useful features that optimize backup performance. Unfortunately for those systems built on the Universal Storage API (USAPI) some of those features are not yet available. One specific feature that is missing is the ability to orchestrate array-based snapshots on a secondary storage array.I’ve written a PowerShell script to be used as a post-job VBR script along with snapshot-only jobs for Pure Storage FlashArray which will replicate Veeam created array snapshots to a secondary FlashArray. It will also ensure that those snapshots are visible in the VBR console and available for recovery tasks including Instant VM recovery, Guest Files recovery, and Application Item Recovery. Download Invoke-PfaSendSnapAfterVBRJob.ps1 from GitHub. Detailed setup instructions. This script has been designed to work both with VBR v10 VeeamPSSnapIn as well as the brand new VBR v11 PowerShell Toolkit.

Create least privilege VBO Azure AD applications without using VBO

Here’s a script I wrote to create Azure AD applications for VBO usage aside from creating the app from within VBO itself.I experienced that this is not always easy to do (Global Admin using VBO to create an app, or having the Global Admin read the documentation and create the application with the right permissions, etc… on his own), so I hope my script can help here. Check out my blog article on it at VBO365: Create Azure AD applications automatically with least priviliges – Z8NAnd the script itself is available on Github: veeam/vbo-create-azure-ad-app.ps1 at master · StefanZi/veeam (github.com)

PowerShell Script to show running Veeam jobs at point or period of time

Recently I had to troubleshoot a Veeam Backup & Replication (B&R) problem. There the question popped up which are the running Veeam jobs at point or period of time. The GUI is not a big help to answer this question. Therefore I wrote a small script that show these jobs.The following PowerShell script snippet is quite simple. First, start- (tStart) and end-date/time (tEnd) are asked for input. The following query selects all running Veeam jobs at point or period of time that matches input dates.# Ask for start- and end-date and timeWrite-Host "Enter date in format " ($(get-date).ToString("dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm"))$tStart = Read-Host "Enter start-time (Enter for now)"$tEnd = Read-Host "Enter end-time (Enter for equal to start-time)"if ($tStart -eq '') {$tStart = get-date -Format "dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm"}if ($tEnd -eq '') {$tEnd = $tStart}# Check input datatry {$tStart = [DateTime]::Parse($tStart)}catch {Write-Host "start-time wrong input"; continue}try {$tEnd = [DateTime]::Parse($tEnd)}cat

VeeamHub?

Not to be a negative nelly, but don’t we already have github.com/veeamhub as a repository that is purpose built for this type of content, managed by people who know code? Can we not push community script additions there rather than turning them into effectively forum posts?

Improvement Idea: SureBackup & Pre/Post Repositories

Hey, Don’t know about you guys but I feel Veeam are missing what could be a very successful trick here with their SureBackup and Pre/Post Processing script functionalities. I know we have VeeamHub for some PowerShell scripts but I think to really push the value of Veeam integrating into our customers’ enterprise application stacks it would be great to have a more direct interface of getting scripts into Veeam. I’ve seen plenty of systems integrating “stores” or other web fronts to enable simple access. It’d be great to see ways of integrating with systems that have been seen as “traditionally” unfriendly to snapshoting and also to validate more complex workloads.I’m sure there are plenty of great scripts out there that just aren’t being shared due to lack of visibility of the existing platforms but driving it into the client would really improve feature take up. That’s my opinion anyway, how do you all feel about this? Wouldn’t you like vendors to be able to offer a one click “it just

[PowerShell] Veeam ONE notifications via MS Teams and Slack

Veeam ONE is a complete monitoring system for VMware, Hyper-V, Veeam and even at the application level being able to monitor VM services and processes running Microsoft Windows, without the need to install any agent, and all through API.As @Rick Vanover usually says, Veeam ONE will surely tell us more than one thing about our environment that we don't know, and Rick is right, with several hundred metrics that Veeam ONE collects, added to the several dozen reports that are included by default, Veeam ONE is that co-worker that we all would like to have in our IT team.Veeam ONE allows you to create notifications for each predetermined alarm or alarms that we create ourselves. While it is true that email notifications are the most basic and the ones we probably configure by default, sadly, it is true that email has become a tool overloaded with daily content, and most likely if a critical alarm falls in a folder or inbox along with 150 other emails, it will not pay the attention it require
