DESCRIPTION

The Get-RubrikEvent cmdlet is used to pull a event data set from a Rubrik cluster. There are a vast number of arguments that can be supplied to narrow down the event query.

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

Get-RubrikEvent -ObjectName "vm-foo" -EventType Backup

This will query for any 'Backup' events on the Rubrik VM object named 'vm-foo'

EXAMPLE 2

Get-RubrikVM -Name jbrasser-win | Get-RubrikEvent -Limit 10

Queries the Rubrik Cluster for any vms named jbrasser-win and return the last ten events for each VM found

EXAMPLE 3

Get-RubrikEvent -EventType Archive -Limit 100

This will query the latest 100 Archive events on the currently logged in Rubrik cluster

EXAMPLE 4

Get-RubrikHost -Name SQLFoo.demo.com | Get-RubrikEvent

This will feed any events against the Rubrik Host object 'SQLFoo.demo.com' via a piped query.

EXAMPLE 5

Get-RubrikEvent -EventSeriesId '1111-2222-3333'

This will retrieve all of the events belonging to the specified EventSeriesId. Note - This will call Get-RubrikEventSeries

EXAMPLE 6

Get-RubrikEvent -EventType Archive -Limit 10 -IncludeEventSeries

This will query the latest 10 Archive events on the currently logged in Rubrik cluster and include the relevant EventSeries.

EXAMPLE 7

Get-RubrikEvent -Limit 25 -ExcludeObjectType AggregateAhvVm,Mssql -Verbose

This will retrieve all of the events while excluding events of the AggregateAhvVm & Mssql object types while displaying verbose messages. This will potentially display less than 25 objects, as filtering happens after receiving the objects from the endpoint

EXAMPLE 8

Get-RubrikEvent -Limit 25 -ExcludeEventType Archive,Replication,Configuration,Backup

This will retrieve all of the events while excluding events of the Archive,Replication,Configuration,Backup Event types while displaying verbose messages. This will potentially display less than 25 objects, as filtering happens after receiving the objects from the endpoint

EXAMPLE 9

Get-RubrikEvent -Limit 25 -EventType Archive -ExcludeObjectType AggregateAhvVm,Mssql -Verbose

This will retrieve all Archive events while excluding events of the AggregateAhvVm & Mssql object types while displaying verbose messages. This will potentially display less than 25 objects, as filtering happens after receiving the objects from the endpoint

EXAMPLE 10

Get-RubrikDatabase | ForEach-Object {Get-RubrikEvent -Limit 1 -Verbose -id $_.ID}

This will retrieve the last event for each of the SQL databases protected by Rubrik identifying the database by its object_id while displaying Verbose information

EXAMPLE 11

Get-RubrikEvent -Limit 1 -Descending:$false

Will retrieve the oldest event on the Rubrik Cluster

EXAMPLE 12

Get-RubrikEvent -Limit 1 -Descending:$false -EventType Backup

Will retrieve the oldest backup event on the Rubrik Cluster

EXAMPLE 13

Get-RubrikEvent -Status Failure -EventSeriesStatus Success

Will retrieve the first 50 Events which have event_status failed and event_series_status Success
