Replication reports provide essential information about past and currently running replication and recovery jobs. The displayed jobs properties, the report format and more are controlled by replication report profiles.
The active replication profile can be changed through the drop-down
list in the upper left of the screen. For more information about
replication profiles and to manage replication profiles, click on the
Manage profiles
action menu.
Whatever the selected profile, the result is displayed as a list of
jobs: the list of jobs matching the selected profile. Each selected job
is displayed as a simple text line split into columns, each column
showing a property of the job. The columns to display are defined in the
profile, so that the user can specify which property he wants to
see. Available replication and recovery properties are listed and
documented in the online help of the Manage replication
profiles
screen.
In the example below, the DEMO rep profile has been selected, which shows one replication job and one recovery job, with some of their properties: the start date of the jobs, the duration of the jobs (time), the amount of replicated (or recovered) data (size), the name of the replicated (or recovered) VTL and the name of the destination account.
The color of a line represents the job status:
By default, the jobs are chronologically arranged: the most recent one is displayed at the top of the list; the oldest one is displayed at the end of the list. However, since all columns are sortable, it is possible to reorder jobs as desired.
At the beginning of each line, a small icon shows the job type. Here is the list of possible job types:
At the end of each line, two clickable icons make it possible to open specific reports about a job:
A left click on a job line reveals the list of backup data sets replicated by this job.
The tree view (accessible through the Show only trees link) focuses on replicated backup data sets rather than on replication jobs. Status and statistics information about replicated backup data sets is reported in this view.
A filtering capability is available to only show specific backup data sets.
