backup schedule and success reports

[pn153]

Where within backup exec can you see when a backup of a specific server is scheduled to run, and also a history report from the past 4 weeks to see how many backups ran successfully/failed for a specific server.

...there would be a canned report that might contain this level or detail.

Otherwise, BE offers the capability to create a customised report, so look at that too.

Thanks!

What is the name of the canned report(s) presumably its 2 as its 2 different issues (schedule and history success)  in BE 2012? And how do you get to the reports?

[pn153]

Can anyone answer the question? Is there a default report which can do this, if so what is it called?

[VJware]

Have you had a look @ the default reports (and their descriptions) under the "Reports" tab ?

Additionally, when creating a custom report, use the Job History and the Job group. That should pretty much give you desired results.

[pn153]

No unfortunately not, as I dont currently have access to BE to do this myself (will be asking an admin to run this on my behalf). if you can see the descriptions, can you elaborate which (name of) default report gives me the ifnromation i am after?

There is no need to run a report for this information if you are using Backup Exec 2012 or Backup Exec 2014.

Just double click on the concerned server from "Backup & Restore" tab. You should be able to see the schedule and also the job history.
