vbr-nasjob-scanner.ps1 - VBR- Report unexpectedly high number of files that have been backed up

Good Monday everyone! Another week, another script ðŸ˜‰ This time for the Veeam file share backup jobs.

Intro
Also last Friday another script was ready for release, but I didn't want to "interrupt" the World Backup Day celebrations with a dull script ;) And my last script also caused quite some buzz in our backup world:

vbr-job-scanner-ps1

And I promised that more will come...    

The script

In my GitHub repository you can find a script that checks if a unexpectedly high number of files have been backed up via file share backup compared to the last times. There are two versions of this script:

  • vbr-nasjob-scanner.ps1 - For manual checks
  • vbr-nasjob-scanner-post-script.ps1 - For use in the Backup Job as a post-script 

Details and instructions on the readme page.

Feedback welcome!

Another very cool script Steve.  Thanks for sharing as I test NAS backups at home all the time so will add this to the mix. ðŸ˜Ž
