PowerShell script for servers running the MARS agent, run as a SYSTEM
scheduled task (hourly) under Windows PowerShell 5.1, which the
agent's MSOnlineBackup module targets. Each server is one dashboard job.
- Backup jobs from Get-OBJob (in progress and -Previous) within the
lookback window; restores are ignored. Completed with failed bytes
or an error reports as warning
- Next run computed from the backup and System State policy schedules;
left empty for every-N-weeks schedules to avoid false Overdue alarms
- Property reads tolerate unknown names, since the agent's object
model isn't documented; Get-MarsCollectorDiagnostics.ps1 dumps the
real structure for checking
- Install-MarsCollector.ps1 mirrors the Veeam installer; tests/MockMars.ps1
provides stand-in cmdlets
Not yet run against a real MARS agent.
