Feature Request - Files, Tape, column sort and...

[rreed]

v9, Files, Tape, you cannot sort by any column. Really need this please - and add what tape(s) a given file is on as a column too please.

Hello rreed,
Thanks for the request! For now you can use Veeam ONE Tape Backups report.

[rreed]

Are tape backup reports included on the free version?

[Shestakov]

Unfortunately, they are not.

[rreed]

Thanks Nikita, we'll wait for a fix.

[Shestakov]

You are welcome.
You may try using powershell scripts for now.

Another way to check where restore points are written is to right-click on the desired file or backup > go to its properties > "Restore points" tab.
There is a "Tapes" column showing the desired info.
Thanks!

How can this kind of thing be done with scripts, please?

[Shestakov]

Depends on what exactly you want. There are some good scripts on Powershell subforum.
Please take a look.

I'm struggling to find this information, where exactly are we right-clicking on the backup for this information? I've tried Backups | Tape | Job Name | Properties but don't see tape info?

[Shestakov]

Hello Paul,
It`s under "FILES" tab in down left corner.

[pkelly_sts]

Ahhhh, many thanks - I never do any "Files" based backups so have never even clicked on that option as I assumed I'd never find anything in there!

[Shestakov]

Never say never
As I said we will think how to show the info more explicitly.

[rreed]

Yeah I've been limping by w/ the Files, Tape, (search for my backup file name), then go through and right-click/properties each one but it can be a little time-consuming and tedious after a while. Looking forward to those columns getting fixed up a bit.
