Feature Request: Tapes and retention

Post by RaymondMD »

It will be a good thing to add Tapes and Retention date in Files screen for each Backup Job so no need to go in properties for the job to see Tapes column
In backup infrastructure for the tape section add date created, date modified and retention date.
Same changes in the enterprise manager

Thanks

Not sure whether I understand your demand regarding adding tape retention period column to Files node. Tape retention is the concept that exists on media pool level ; meanwhile, Files node is more about showing backed up data and its location, in case of tape. So, it doesn't seem that there is a strong correlation between both.

Or you're talking here about different things?

Thanks.

i meen in the Files section for tape add information tapes used for each backup job and the retention date until the backup job is valid on tape to know when the backup will be expired.
