Feature Request : Better organization of object storage backups listings

Post by dejan.ilic »

Hello.
While backing up two objects with one backup job, all together 19 containers, I noticed that there is no separation of containers by objects under "backups" view in the GUI.
As a direct result I cannot know which of the listed containers belongs to which object when selecting for restore.

The workaround right now would be to have one backup job for every object storage account, but that is also not optimal.
That way each job (object storage) would be separated under the "backups" folder so that correct data easily could be selected for restore.

Please create a separation by object in the GUI, when having multiple object storage objects in the same backup job, just like servers/VMs are today in the same listing under each backup job.

Hello Dejan

Can you maybe provide a screenshot?
You can blur out any confidential information before uploading the screenshot.
For screenshot sharing in public forums, I'll use services like https://imgbb.com.

Thank you,

Sure @Fabian, here is a screenshot :Image
It show partially the containers from two different Azure Blob storage accounts backed up by one job.
Both Blob-accounts has a container named "azure-webjobs-hosts" and from Veeam interface there is no way to know which container is from which storage account.

PS.
The image is visible at least in Safari, it seems to be due to imgbb SSL ecliptic certificate
