Prerequisites

Steps to reproduce

ENV

  • Exchange Server 2019
  • running on Server 2019,
  • Circular logging not enabled
  • PS 7.4.3 (whichever version is currently issued via Windows Update)

Command
Start-WBBackup

Issue
When I back up servers running Exchange 2019, the logs are not being flushed when a successful backup is completed. If I run Windows Ses]rver backup in the same setup, it flushes the log files.

Function

# PURPOSE: Start-AssembleAndExecuteBackup - Assembles the required commands and values and executes the backup
function Start-AssembleAndExecuteBackup {
    try {
        $Policy = New-WBPolicy
        $BackupLocation = New-WBBackupTarget -NetworkPath "$NetworkFQTarget"
        
        Add-SeperatorLineToLog
        Add-UpdateLogWithSingleLine "L" "CREATED OBJECTS" ""
        Add-UpdateLogWithSingleLine "R" "Objects" "Policy, VolumeList, and Backup Target Location"
        
        Add-WBSystemState $Policy
        Add-WBBareMetalRecovery $Policy
        Add-WBBackupTarget -Policy $Policy -Target $BackupLocation
        Set-WBVssBackupOptions -Policy $Policy -VssCopyBackup
        
        Add-SeperatorLineToLog
        Add-UpdateLogWithSingleLine "L" "STARTING BACKUP" ""
        
        if ($str_Testing -eq "ON") {
            Add-UpdateLogWithSingleLine "R" "Backup Testing Mode" "ON (No backup performed)"
        } else {
            Add-UpdateLogWithSingleLine "R" "Email" "Email Notification Sent"
            Start-WBBackup -Policy $Policy -Verbose
        }
    } catch {
        Write-Error "An error occurred: $_"
        Add-UpdateLogWithSingleLine "E" "Backup Error" "$($_.Exception.Message)"
    }
}

Expected behavior

The log files should be cleared once a successful backup completes

Actual behavior

Logs remain unflushed, no errors a reported by PS or Event Log
