Backup Copy Jobs now recognized

[cerri]

Hello,

the sensor cannot recognize a Copy Job. I'm running the script directly on the Veeam Server with HTTP Push Data sensor type. On this server there are: 2 Backup Jobs 1 Backup Copy Job

But I cannot see any Copy Job result. Is it an issue or I am missing something?

Thank you

Hi @cerri ,

Do you use the -selChann parameter to change scope of the script?

Which VBR version do you use?

Might you please run the script run with -Debug switch and share the output?

I will also have a look at that in my lab.

Best wishes Markus

Hello @vMarkusK,

I hope it's okay to revive this rather old thread. I have the same error as Cerri: Unfortunately our backup copy jobs are not displayed in PRTG.

To cover your previous points:

• No, we didn't change anything in the -selChann parameter (or anything similar to change the scope).
• we are on the latest version v12.0.0.1420
• The output with the -Debug switch looks exactly like it is in PRTG: 0 Backup Copy Success, 0 Backup Copy Failed, 0 Backup Copy Idle, etc. ...

I thank you for your help in advance.

Best regards

Hello @OashaP ,

was it working at any time for you? What is the schedule frequency of your Copy Jobs?

This snippet will return all Copy Job-Runs within the last month, might you please verify the output:

$HourstoCheck = 720
$allSesh = Get-VBRBackupSession  
$seshListBkc = @($allSesh | Where-Object{($_.CreationTime -ge (Get-Date).AddHours(-$HourstoCheck)) -and $_.JobType -eq "BackupSync"})  
$seshListBkc

Hello Markus,

firstly, thank you for helping us with this one. Regarding your points:

• Everything else was working as expected, but backup copy never did
• Mostly daily
• The output of that command is empty. I run this command inside the Veeam PowerShell and just receive the Command Prompt back to start the next query

Best regards OashaP

Might you please verify this Script Block, do you see all Copy Jobs?

$HourstoCheck = 48
$allSesh = Get-VBRBackupSession  
$seshListBkc = @($allSesh | Where-Object{($_.CreationTime -ge (Get-Date).AddHours(-$HourstoCheck)) -and $_.JobType -match "BackupSync|SimpleBackupCopyWorker"})  
$seshListBkc

This script successfully returned all of our Backup Copy Jobs as it's output.

@OashaP Might you please verify #102 ?

The script works and our sensors now display the backup copies correctly. Thank you for your help!
