YARA and Script Library

Is that any way to trigger notification when backup job start?

Hi,I need to write to the tape files created during previous day. I have a script which generates that list. How can I tell Veeam, which files to write?Do I need to write script creating a new job each day or it is possible to use “before job script” for that?Thanks in advance 

Hi all, I just wanted to give you some updates on vCLI’s updates (up to 0.7.0-beta1):PUT and POST operations Default API updated to v12 VBR and v7 VB365 Enterprise Manager support Utility functions: VBR Job GET to POST converter Check for version updates  Job template featureVBR Job GET to POST converterThe VBR API Job object is slightly different to the POST object; the converter can take a GET object json file and convert it to a POST object json file. Job Template featureThe job template feature was put together to help with having to manage large VBR job objects. A job template can be created, forming the basis for any new jobs you want to create. For example, if you only need to modify the VMs, you only need to pass a relatively small object:type: Backupname: my jobdescription: Created by

Hi all, most of us know the powerfull Remove-VBOEntityData cmdlet to remove objects from Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 repo’s. I’ve been checking documentation and the swagger, but didn’t find any API alternative. Anybody already succeeded in calling this function via API ?

Hi all, To all the API gurus out there that like Go I’ve put together a package that takes care of all the authentication for you.https://github.com/shapedthought/go-veeam-authReally easy to add to your project. Just put this into the terminal in your project directory:go get github.com/shapedthought/go-veeam-authMost of the APIs are covered:VBR VB AWS VB AZURE VB GCP VONE VB365Instructions are on the GitHub. Video:Note that this isn’t a full SDK like the one on VeeamHub, it just does the authentication, but there are some convenience functions to make calls a bit easier.If you have any recommendations or would like to contribute, feel free to raise an issue or send a pull requ

Hello Community,imagine you no longer have access to your most important Exchange Online mailboxes? Or you want to perform some checks, but you don't want to touch the productive mailboxes and your production Microsoft 365 tenant? What if a script and Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 could help you?Down below is a simple recipe.IngredientsVeeam Backup for Microsoft 365 An Exchange Online backup job protecting the mailboxes A second Microsoft 365 tenant with already configured (target) mailboxes A configured Azure AD application in the second Microsoft 365 tenant A CSV file with the mailboxes to be copiedThe script with all information can be downloaded here: ScriptIf the destination mailbox is empty, all objects are restored. If

This script showcases just how easy it is to use Veeam PowerShell cmdlets to export an M365 mailbox. This script is designed to be executed on a Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 (VB365) v6 server and it's interactive so no parameters are required. Upon execution, the script polls for information which culminates in the specified user mailbox being exported to a PST file.The code in this script could also be referenced to create a script to fully automate the mailbox export process.For more detailed information, please follow the VeeamHub link:https://github.com/VeeamHub/powershell/tree/master/VB365-ExportMailboxToPSTHere’s a screenshot of what it looks like in action:

Colleagues, Anyone knows how to enable that checkbox by Powershell? Trying to build 100% powershell deployment and can’t find how to enable that settings.Cheers,Alexey

A few times I have had partners/customers confused as to why their jobs failed when needing media and they have put media in the library. Well, the new media is in the Unrecognized Pool and needs to be moved. I created a Powershell script that can be used to automate this process to hopefully help this situation. https://github.com/VeeamHub/powershell/tree/master/BR-TapeMedia-FreePool

Sometimes my customers ask for a more detailed capcity report regarding the stored Exchange Online backup data. Currently you only get the consumed capacity per repository and per organization. But how about calculating an average value from the stored backup data divided by the number of protected mailboxes?I wanted to hit two birds with one stone: Write a new script covering this topic and start to switch my existing scripts to modern authentication. Here you are: https://github.com/yetanothermightytool/powershell/tree/master/vbo/vb365-exo-usage-reportSoon I will publish a how-to guide with step by step instructions on how to create/update scripts using the modern authentication approach. Stay tuned. Happy weekend! Steve

Hello community!Some customers asked for it and here is it (a little X-mas present for the community):The NAS Hash Comparer. This script launches an Instant File Share Recovery for a specified file share backup job and compares the hash value using the given parameters. More details can be found on my GitHub page: https://github.com/yetanothermightytool/powershell/blob/master/vbr/vbr-nas-hashcompare/README.mdHappy HolidaysSteve

Guys, I've created a script to automatically create SPO and Teams jobs. Main features includeCreate jobs for all currently unprotected SPO sites and teams Build jobs based on a object-limit per job (incl. recurse option to cope with SP subsites) Distribute jobs over different repositories automatically (which includes proxy balancing of course) Add matching teams to the same job as the SP site as per BP Automatic scheduling with delays per job (configurable) All built on the VB365 API - so no M365 application or so required Include & excludes possible Can put objects in a job pointing to a repository which already contains backups of this objectThe script is available on VeeamHub: powershell/VB365-JobManager at master · VeeamHub/powershell (github.com)

So, this is definitely a deep edge case if you could not tell from the title, if you could even figure out the situation from the title :)But since I went down this rabbit hole for a case, figured I’d share it for people getting deep into automation and the Veeam Public Cloud Backups who are following 3-2-1 rule and making Backup Copies of these from their External Repositories. Even if you never need to solve this particular use case, I suppose it’s a good example of what you can actually learn about a backup and how to properly parse data without nasty string munging.Issue: Backup Copies sourced from External Backups don’t have a UI field to associate the Restore Points with the original backed up machine’s public cloud information like Subscription, Region, etc.Where this likely becomes an issue is when you heavily automate regional deployments and may have identical infrastructures set up uniquely for individual regions. (e.g., you deploy ma

One of the first scripts I wrote after I joined Veeam was one that produced a license usage report using the Veeam Availability Console API. Since then, a lot has changed! The product was rebranded to Veeam Service Provider Console (VSPC) and it’s API was greatly updated in a complete rewrite!That change occurred a couple years ago... As such, it was definitely long overdue for this script to be reworked so it could leverage this amazing new API! This script uses minimal API calls to retrieve current point in time license usage for every company in VSPC. On top of that, if the company is managed by a reseller, reseller information will be included in the output.Developer’s notes...This script is meant to be a stepping stone as the framework can easily be used in other automations. I tried to keep most of the code modular by design so folks can use the script as-is or take the pieces you need for your custom Veeam integration. It can also s

Hi guys, I was wondering if it is possible to enable the encrypt option for all backup jobs using powershell. I already have created the encryption key/password.  Your help would be appriciated. 

I have a lot of users that require a location accessible to everyone to share files on a temporary basis. (non confidential type info) My issue is that nobody likes to delete anything here… EVER! After having to clean it out multiple times I figured I’d run a scheduled task for a PowerShell script to clean the folder out on the first of every month.  The issue is now people wondering why the files were deleted event though it was explained and called Temporary_Data_Transfer. lol I created a folder titled  “_Instructions” at the top that won’t be removed by the script and the underscore keeps it at the top.  There is a document in it so users can review the date the folder is cleaned out and states that files will be deleted monthly. This has really helped clear things up with people not knowing their files will be removed. The script omits clean up of that folder by increasing the date to make it appear as a new file.  T

Update from @Chris.Arceneaux (Nov 7th, 2022):Chris has created a new script to automate the commands described in my topic. Thank you very much. :)https://github.com/VeeamHub/powershell/tree/master/VB365-CheckTeamsProtectedAPI______________________ My code has the added benefit of not requiring parameters (TenantID/AppId/CertThumbprint) to be specified as long as the script is executed on the VB365 server. It also automagically installs required PowerShell module(s). This script is about KB4322 (Using Microsoft Graph Export API for Teams) Recently, we were asked in the R&D forum, how much time Microsoft will take, un

Incase of Multiple VMs available on top of Veeam how AAIP will help and Support

As always run it on a test VM while you are watching it, but this script will power down, modify the CPU and/or Memory on a VM, then power it back up.  This has been VERY handy for Changing resources on my VMs after hours. Like adding memory to a Veeam Virtual proxy server after a backup window ends.  While I borrowed most of the script from the internet, there wasn’t much about running as a scheduled task which was can cause confusion to many people from what I read.  Here is a few tips to run the PowerShell script as a scheduled task.  Step 1, Use the script below to create a PS1 file. I named mine VM_MEMORY_CPU_COUNT_HQ.PS1     Keep in mind the name and location when you add the arguments below.Step 2, Create a scheduled task in windows at specified time. Step 3, set action to run a program. You don’t want to run the script, you want to run Powershell.exeexample - C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPo

Does anyone have a script and willing to share that list the Veeam backup job name + it’s start time+ the proxy server name+ it’s repository name.

Hello Veeam,In Veeam 365 backup for SharePoint online, I see that can backup the SP online sites and also has a category for “Personal Sites”.Can anyone explain what is these Personal Sites and where can I find them in SharePoint admin portal?I couldn't found any explanation even in Veeam documentation about Personal Sites.https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbo365/guide/back_up_sites.html?zoom_highlight=personal+sites&ver=60 Thank you in advance,Nikos
