If you're looking for the size reported when the backup was run, that's located in the GUI under Reports / Client Backups.  Note that this report only lists non-expired backups.

If you're looking for how much space in a Deduplication Pool the backup is using, that information is not easily available due to the nature of Deduplication.

You can list recent backup sizes, and how much was moved by client side dedupe, or was ingested into dedupe, and the dedupe rate, using:

> bperror -disk -client myclient.com | grep "PDDO.Stats"

...and you can list further back in time (as far as you keep the error logs) using -hoursago or -d mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss

The Client Backups report in the Reports section of the GUI will also give you totals per Client.

You can choose a specific client for a specific date, or all clients for a date or going back as far there are valid backups in NBU catalog.
