***
The examples in the script itself were recently updated to reflect changes to the plugins API location/syntax in newer versions of NCPA.
***
I have tested this extensively using NCPA, although NRPE and other agents would likely work. If you have issues with it, please let me know and I will make changes as necessary. The script is heavily commented and very readable with numerous usage examples in the script itself. Enjoy!

I am attempting to get this check working with Veeam VBR 11 on Windows 2019. I have a single replication job that completed successfully in the last hour. Running the script from the shell on the Veeam server always shows::
Backup failed: backup job CoreReplication has not run in last 240 hours
Backup failed: backup job CoreReplication has not run in last 240 hours |'BackupNotRun'=1
Looking in Event Viewer, I can see Event ID 190 in the last hour, and the name matches exactly.
Backup failed: backup job CoreReplication has not run in last 240 hours
Backup failed: backup job CoreReplication has not run in last 240 hours |'BackupNotRun'=1

hello, I have 2.8.22 centreon and nsclient ++, in my nsclient.ini I have:
check_veeam_eventlogs = check_veeam_eventlogs.ps1 'Backup X3v7 4vm SRVBACKUP' 24
and the answer on centreon is:
Command line usage: check_veeam_eventlogs.ps1
Nagios NCPA usage: agent / plugin / check_veeam_eventlogs.ps1 / /
while command-line powershell directly execute on the server in question, the command:
check_veeam_eventlogs.ps1 'Backup X3v7 4vm SRVBACKUP' 24
works very well.
I feel that nsclient ++ does not approve of ' or space in my job?
thank you

I tried the plugin and it works fine, but it I try to use the seccond argument it always returns the same output "Backup failed: backup job X has not run in last 9999 hours".
How can I fix this?
Thanks in advance!

I just tried it and it worked ok. Please make sure you are following the examples in the script comments. I also updated the script to reflect recent changes in the NCPA plugins syntax.
