Hello,
Michael asked at the Veeam User Group meeting about starting health checks manually via PowerShell in V12.
Start-VBRBackupHealthCheck should work for that (I did not test).
Best regards,
Hannes

Thanks, Hannes.
Just checked it and it works. 👍
Seems to be an undocumented function as it cannot be found in:
Getting Started - Veeam Backup PowerShell Reference
It’s also flagged for internal use only:
PS C:\Users\my.user> help Start-VBRBackupHealthCheck
NAME
Start-VBRBackupHealthCheck
ÜBERSICHT
WARNING! This cmdlet is for internal use only.
SYNTAX
Start-VBRBackupHealthCheck [-Backup] <CBackup> [[-Oib] <COib>] [-RunAsync] [<CommonParameters>]
correct. It’s not in the user guide, because it’s internal only :-)
I already asked to make it official
Thanks… Otherwise I would never ever have used it, of course… 😉
Good thing is, it returns the result within PS. So one might evaluate it for reporting purposes.
Hey guys
We tested this command (Start-VBRBackupHealthCheck) internally. It doesn’t work for the new backup format in V12. The command launches an empty health check process. Backups are not tested, but the command reports a success. Please don’t use it :)
If you need to run a Health Check manually, you can set the schedule start time a few minutes from now. The scheduled health check works with the new backup format.
Best,
Fabian
