I want to get informations about the restore points of a vm. I have a list with the names of each vm in a CSV.

I want to know for each restore Point the name of the VM, which Media Pool it is, which Media Set and the backup set date. I Could not find any veeam-cmdlet which could help me.

I tried it with 

$ImportCSV = Import-csv $VMNames
    $Days = 10
    $DateToCompare = (Get-date).AddDays(-$Days) 
        $ImportCSV | % {
            Get-VBRRestorePoint -Name $_.Name |
                Where-Object { $_.CreationTime -gt $DateToCompare }
        } | Select-Object VMName

But then i could not find the informations i am looking for on the return values of Get-VBRRestorePoint Does anyone know the right cmdlets? Couldn't find anything on Google. The Result should be exported as a csv File.

    Instead of `Select-Object`, try using `Get-Member -MemberType Property` to figure out what you need to grab off the `RestorePoint` object. – Maximilian Burszley Jul 10 '18 at 14:21
  • Can you explain why `Get-Member` is better than `Select-Object`? I don't understand the difference (as you see i am a PowerShell Beginner) –  Jul 10 '18 at 14:24

    If I recall correctly I already suggested using `Get-Member` (as well as `Format-List *`) in my comment to your previous, now deleted, question. You use the former cmdlet, because its purpose is to provide information about the members (properties and methods) of an object (`Get-VBRRestorePoint ... | Get-Member`). Which is exactly the information you're looking for. – Ansgar Wiechers Jul 10 '18 at 14:42
