Windows Drive Backed up data size calculation

[Vickie]

Hi All,

I want to check the backed up data size of particular drive of windows server. 

Please share the command or process as how we may check this.

Thanks in advance

to verify open up successful job completed in activity monitor or check in reports 

other way open up Backup archive and Restore and check for that client on particular day,

PS: if there are multiple backup selection for within same drives you need to sum up it manually..

that's all what i reckon NBU offers... Not sure of seeing NBU showing Drive backup size .. what it shows is of backup selection and that too cumulative for all the backup selection unless multiple streams were used with single stream for individual drive (and/or folders for same drive) as backup selection.

CJS is right - no easy way to get the info.

NBU stores backup size in the image header. The file and folder info is stored in 'files file'.

The BAR GUI is easiest since NBU will check all of these locations in the background using different commands and then display info in the GUI.

To find the info yourself, use Client Backup report or bpimagelist from cmd to find backup size for each stream and exact date and time that client backup ran.
(Use bpimagelist -client <name> -d <start-date> -e <end-date with different options: -l, -L, -U).

When you have the size and exact time-stamp for each stream use bplist to see which drive letter is in that stream.  start and end time must be the same:
bplist -C <clientname> -s <dd/mm/yy hh:ss> -e <dd/mm/yy hh:ss> -R 1 /
