This example shows how to create a backup content scan SureBackup job which will randomly scan 5 machines from the linked job named Exchange Job. Veeam Backup & Replication will scan these machines with antivirus software and the YARA rule.

$job = Get-VBRJob -Name "Exchange Job"

$linkedjob = New-VBRSureBackupLinkedJob -Job $job

$verification = New-VBRSureBackupJobVerificationOptions -EnableMalwareScan -EnableEntireImageScan -EnableYARAScan -YARAScanRule "Rule.yara"

Add-VBRSureBackupContentScanJob -LinkedJob $linkedjob -Name "Lite Verification Job" -VerificationOptions $verification -ProcessRandomMachines -RandomMachinesMaxCount "5" -Description "SureBackup Job for DNS"

Perform the following steps:

Run the Get-VBRJob cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $job variable.
Run the New-VBRSureBackupLinkedJob cmdlet. Set the $job variable as the Job parameter value. Save the result to the $linkedjob variable.
Run the New-VBRSureBackupJobVerificationOptions cmdlet. Provide the EnableMalwareScan, the EnableEntireImageScan and the EnableYARAScan parameters. Specify the YARAScanRule parameter value. Save the result to the $verification variable.
Run the Add-VBRSureBackupContentScanJob cmdlet. Specify the following settings:

Set the $linkedjob variable as the LinkedJob parameter value.
Specify the Name parameter value.
Set the $verification variable as the VerificationOptions parameter value.
Provide the ProcessRandomMachines parameter.
Specify the RandomMachinesMaxCount parameter value.
Specify the Description parameter value.

This example shows how to create a scheduled lite SureBackup job.

$job = Get-VBRJob -Name "Exchange Job"

$linkedjob = New-VBRSureBackupLinkedJob -Job $job

$verification = New-VBRSureBackupJobVerificationOptions -EnableMalwareScan -EnableEntireImageScan -EnableYARAScan -YARAScanRule "Rule.yara"

$daily = New-VBRDailyOptions -DayOfWeek "Friday" -Period "23:00"

$schedule = New-VBRSureBackupJobScheduleOptions -Type "Daily" -DailyOptions $daily

Add-VBRSureBackupContentScanJob -LinkedJob $linkedjob -VerificationOptions $verification -Name "Lite Verification Job" -ScheduleOptions $schedule -Description "SureBackup Job for DNS"

Perform the following steps:

Run the Get-VBRJob cmdlet. Specify the Name parameter value. Save the result to the $job variable.
Run the New-VBRSureBackupLinkedJob cmdlet. Set the $job variable as the Job parameter value. Save the result to the $linkedjob variable.
Run the New-VBRSureBackupJobVerificationOptions cmdlet. Provide the EnableMalwareScan, the EnableEntireImageScan and the EnableYARAScan parameters. Specify the YARAScanRule parameter value. Save the result to the $verification variable.
Run the New-VBRDailyOptions cmdlet. Specify the DayOfWeek parameter and the Period parameter values. Save the result to the $daily variable.
Run the New-VBRSureBackupJobScheduleOptions cmdlet. Specify the Type parameter value. Set the $daily variable as the DailyOptions parameter value. Save the result to the $schedule variable.
Run the Add-VBRSureBackupContentScanJob cmdlet. Specify the following settings:

Set the $linkedjob variable as the LinkedJob parameter value.

Set the $verification variable as the VerificationOptions parameter value.

Specify the Name parameter value.
Set the $schedule variable as the ScheduleOptions parameter value.
Specify the Description parameter value.
