backup time overview

Post by Pat490 »

Hello,

is it possible to get a graphical overview of backup times in Veeam One? Maybe with Reporter oder Monitor?
Maybe in calendar style daily/weekly/monthly? So I can see the average time window of my backups and where I could best schedule next jobs?

Perhaps it is already there but I can not find it

Hi Patrick,

Would like to see how much time was consumed during the day or you would like to see possible overlaps for the jobs running through the same proxy/repository server?

Thanks!

Ideally you don't need to bother about job scheduling, as you can limit the number of concurrent jobs by tasks limit, but thanks for the feedback!

[MERGED] graphical job overview

Post by lowlander »

Hi,

Is there a way we can generate a graphical 24 hours job overview, where scheduled timing and actual timing of all vms protected by jobs can be determined ? Call it an overall vm/job "time-line" ?

Thanks !

Would be nice. Currently the backup status report is nice in veeam one. However showing this in one big overview for all jobs is a recurring request when discussing reporting with end users.

Thanks !

Do you want calendar view of finished jobs with status, scheduled jobs or both?
Do you need any other info in the report?

Hi,

a daily backup job flow report with a time line of 24 hours would be nice to start, with an overview of all scheduled jobs. (although a larger time ranger maybe creates an unclear overview)
Maybe a good idee to provide the option to expand the time line with steps of days,weeks,months

for example the following picture regarding an "device flow flow report"

change the name device to veeam job :)

Such overview will greatly enhance insight in complex Veeam configurations for understanding and documentation purposes.

Thanks

Thanks for a good suggestion!
So there will probably be different views for daily, weekly, monthly jobs reports.

any updates or plans to include a graphical view of the backup jobs as discussed in this thread? I still hope to see that one day in Veeam!

I just noticed that Nakivo has exactly this feature included https://www.nakivo.com/features/calendar-dashboard/

That means v10.
