Veeam Back & Replication 13

[ellileon-rnxt]

Hello,

first off all: i really love these reports. Thanks a lot for developing them!
Now my question: are there any plans to support Veeam B&R v13 in the future? As you might have heard, Version 13 is available now.
I haven't tried the report with v13 yet. Anyone did? Any problems?

We are about to upgrade to v13.

Veeam Backup & Replication v13 introduces several new features and improvements, one of which is support for .Net Core. To support that version of .Net, it is necessary to update the AsBuiltReport.Veeam.VBR report to work in PowerShell v7. This effort requires many hours of work that place an additional burden on my already heavy work schedule. If you wish to support this effort, please do not hesitate to donate! https://ko-fi.com/jcolonfzenpr/goal?g=0

Where are things with this feature request? I'm happy to assist but want to make sure we aren't duplicating our efforts. Could this FR be broken up into smaller portions (perhaps by report script) so others could easily assist? I could then tag each for the pieces I'm currently working on.

To be honest, I am still evaluating whether this work is worth it, considering that the current version of the report is quite stable. Migrating all the content to a different version of pwsh would require testing all sessions and tables to validate that the information being displayed is correct, as well as modifying the diagrams to align them with the new VBR changes (Appliance vs. Windows).

I currently have no relationship with Veeam, either as a partner or a customer, so I don't think it's worth undertaking such a huge task without any benefit in my case.

Understood. Just wanted to see where you're at. As AsBuiltReport.Core already supports PowerShell 7, have you tried using AsBuiltReport.Veeam.VBR as is? My hope is there would be minimal to change.

I'm just digging deeper to gauge the effort it would take.
