`` This cmdlet supports Microsoft PowerShell common parameters. For more information on common parameters, see [ Microsoft Docs](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_commonparameters?view=powershell-7). ## Output Object The cmdlet returns the `VBRUnstructuredBackupCopyJob` object that contains settings of file backup copy jobs or object storage backup copy jobs. ## Examples ::: example ### Example 1. Getting File Backup Copy Job by Primary Job This example shows how to get a file backup copy job that was created to process backup files of the `SMB Backup` file backup job. The file backup copy jobs are stored on the `Repository07` secondary repository. ``` $filebackupjob = Get-VBRUnstructuredBackupJob -Name "SMB Backup" $repository = Get-VBRBackupRepository -Name "Repository07" Get-VBRUnstructuredBackupCopyJob -ParentJob $filebackupjob -BackupRepository $repository ``` Perform the following steps: 1. Run the [`Get-VBRUnstructuredBackupJob`](get-vbrunstructuredbackupjob.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$filebackupjob` variable. 2. Run the [`Get-VBRBackupRepository`](get-vbrbackuprepository.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$repository` variable. 3. Run the `Get-VBRUnstructuredBackupCopyJob` cmdlet. Set the `$filebackupjob` variable as the `ParentJob` parameter value. Set the `$repository` variable as the `BackupRepository` parameter value. ::: ::: example ### Example 2. Getting Object Storage Backup Copy Jobs by Name This command returns all object storage backup copy jobs with the names that begin with the letters C through T. ``` Get-VBRUnstructuredBackupCopyJob -Name [C-T]* ``` ::: ::: example ### Example 3. Getting File Backup Copy Jobs by ID This command returns the `fdae7148-81e6-4cb0-8ea8-34512001fd4c` file backup copy job. ``` Get-VBRUnstructuredBackupCopyJob -Id fdae7148-81e6-4cb0-8ea8-34512001fd4c ``` ::: ## Related Commands - [`Get-VBRBackupRepository`](get-vbrbackuprepository.md) - [`Get-VBRUnstructuredBackupJob`](get-vbrunstructuredbackupjob.md)
