  • Similar information is provided using Backup > Backup Status.

The Backup page generates a report summarizing data retrieved from the backup logs.

Note: Displays only if you have purchased the Backup addon module.

Configure the report using the following options:

  • Show backup logs from the last <N> days - Specify how many days of backup log entries to include in the report.
  • Show backup log summary data - If checked, includes a summary table totaling types of backup events for the last N number of days for volumes and folders.
  • Show backup log status by machine and event - List the backup log information collected in the last N days for each machine.
    • Backup type filter - Volume Backups or Folder Backups.
    • Result filter - <All Results>, Success, Failure, Warning, Informational
  • Ignore machines without data - If checked, only displays machine IDs that have data matching the other filter parameters.

Share Report / Private Report

By default, Private access is selected. Private reports can only be viewed and run by the administrator that created the report. Shared reports can be viewed and run by all administrators. Saved reports are identified as either private or shared in the left-hand navigation pane.
