Script to verify RMS replay status – Originally posted By Dan.Marbes, 02 Dec 2010

Dan.Marbes - I have been looking for ways to make sure I don't have any RMS 5.x installs that are hung up.  If you're not aware, the job scheduler will fail if it gets backed up by more than 5 jobs (in my experience due to funky stuff happening when expiring replays).  At any rate,  the script below will loop through a list of Storage Centers, find any volumes with have application-generated replays, and then find the most current replay for that volume.  Since all of the times that are returned with Get-SCReplay (CreateTime, FreezeTime, etc) are strings, I've used the ParseExact to convert those strings into DateTime objects for comparison.  When complete, it emails the output.   This is an early revision of this code, but hopefully is at least somewhat useful.

$format = "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss tt"

$SANList = ('SAN1','SAN2') #enter Storage Center names here

$provider = [System.Globalization.CultureInfo]::InvariantCulture

$date = get-date

$emailtext = "Runtime: $date"

foreach($array in $SANList)

{

$emailtext = $emailtext + "`n" + $array

#Get array of all replays created by RMS on the array

$volreplays = Get-SCReplay -ConnectionName $Array -createsource application -state frozen

if($volreplays.count -gt 0) #If there are RMS replays, continue

 {

#Get list of volume indices with RMS replays

$RMSVols = New-Object System.Collections.ArrayList

foreach($replay in $volreplays)

    {

        $volindex = $replay.SourceVolumeIndex

        if($RMSVols -contains $volindex)

        {

        #do nothing

        }

        else

        {

        [void]$RMSVols.add($volindex) #build array of RMS volumes

        } 

    }

foreach($volume in $RMSVols)

    {

     # for each volume, reset the newest date to an arbitrary value

    $NewestReplay = get-date 1/1/2010

    $VolName = Get-SCVolume -ConnectionName $Array -index $volume

    $emailtext = $emailtext + "`n" + $volname.name

        foreach($replay in $volreplays)

          {        

            if($replay.sourcevolumeindex -eq $volume)

                {

                #this is the conversion of the string to a datetime

                $CT =  [DateTime]::ParseExact($replay.freezetime, $format, $provider) 

                    if($ct -gt $newestreplay)

                    {

                    $newestreplay = $ct

                    }

                }   

           } 

     $emailtext = $emailtext + "`n" + "Most recent replay taken at: $newestreplay" + "`n" 

        if($newestreplay -lt ((get-date).adddays(-1)))

            {

            $emailtext = $emailtext + "`n" + "***Most recent replay older than 24 hours, may indicate an issue" + "`n"

            }   

    }

 }
