New and Updated Cmdlets

This section contains information on new and updated Veeam Explorers PowerShell cmdlets in Veeam Backup & Replication 13.

Veeam Explorer for Oracle

In this version, the deprecated ServerName parameter of the Get-VEORPublishedDatabase cmdlet has been removed. Use the Backup parameter instead.

The Backup parameter of the Start-VEORRMANRestoreSession cmdlet became required.

Veeam Explorer for PostgreSQL

In this version, the LinuxTargetHost parameter of the Start-VEPSQLDatabaseExport cmdlet became optional. Using Start-VEPSQLDatabaseExport to export data to the local host where the Veeam Backup & Replication console is installed is not supported — Veeam Backup & Replication 13 only supports Linux-based backup servers.

Veeam Explorer for SAP HANA

In this version, the RestoreSession parameter of the Stop-VEHANARestoreSession cmdlet has become deprecated. Use the Session parameter instead.
