Get list of VMS in Azure recovery vault

  • 772

Is there a way to list all the VMS listed in recovery vault using powershell?

I've been hunting around online and have only seen commands to manage virtual machines but not list them. I'm trying to list all the protected VMS and the last backup date. If it's possible.

Thanks in advance :)

powershell

    We can use PowerShell to list VMs in the recovery service vault and the latest recovery point, like this:

    Get-AzureRmRecoveryServicesVault -Name "jasonbackup" -ResourceGroupName "backup" | Set-AzureRmRecoveryServicesVaultContext

$nameContainer = Get-AzureRmRecoveryServicesBackupContainer -ContainerType "AzureVM" -Status "Registered" -FriendlyName "jasonvm"

Get-AzureRmRecoveryServicesBackupItem -Container $nameContainer -WorkloadType "AzureVM" | select ContainerName,LatestRecoveryPoint

    enter image description here

    My VMs name are jasonvm and jasonvm2.

    =============================================
    Update:

    If we have many VMs, we can use Foreach to list Azure VM Name and LatestRecoveryPoint, we can use this script:

    Get-AzureRmRecoveryServicesVault -Name "jasonbackup" -ResourceGroupName "backup" | Set-AzureRmRecoveryServicesVaultContext

$fnames = Get-AzureRmRecoveryServicesBackupContainer -ContainerType "AzureVM" -Status "Registered" | select  -ExpandProperty friendlyname

 foreach ($name in $fnames)
 {
 $nameContainer = Get-AzureRmRecoveryServicesBackupContainer -ContainerType "AzureVM" -Status "Registered" -FriendlyName $name
 Get-AzureRmRecoveryServicesBackupItem -Container $nameContainer -WorkloadType "AzureVM" | select ContainerName,LatestRecoveryPoint
 }

  2. I'm having trouble with the Set-AzureRmRecoveryServicesVaultContext command (Powershell 6.0 with AZ Module). it seems it will be deprecated to set the context as suggested here: KB MS

    just add the -vaultID value to the Jason's command, eg:

    $vaultID = Get-AzRecoveryServicesVault -ResourceGroupName "backup" -Name "jasonbackup" | select -ExpandProperty ID
fnames = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupContainer -ContainerType "AzureVM" -Status "Registered" -VaultId $vaultID | select  -ExpandProperty friendlyname
