Reporting of Agents

Post by jochot »

Hey,

I use the job reporting from B&R to prove that the Backup is working.
When I create a report of a Job with Agents, I get the report for one backup run, not for all of this job.
I know this is expected behavior, but I question why is it like that?
And for me personally, it would be awesome if you could choose from when to when the reports are being created.

Hello jochot.

What job type are you using for agents (managed by backup server or managed by agent)? Thanks.

On a side note, If you have Veeam ONE, then you might also want to use this pre-built report for Veeam Agents.

No worries, if you need the same reports to show which VMs are protected as well as run capacity planning reports for virtual infrastructure, then later down the road this product might come in handy.

Managed by backup server job report should have a consolidated table with the result for all source agent. Are you saying that you would like to recive a consolidated email report with all job stats in one place? Thanks!

If I go to the Veeam Console, right-click on a Hyper-V Job, and click "report" it opens a Browser with all the times the job ran.
If I do the same for a Agent Job, I get the browser with the last job.

Basically what I need is a report with all the Job runs from date x to date y, this feature doesn't give me the option with the dates but I get all the job runs (for Hyper-V)
And as VeeamONE is not freeware afaik, this is unfortunately not an option for me :(
