Backup Storage Utilization Reports

Backup Storage Utilization reports display the storage utilization and status of your backup storage, such as vSnap servers.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN:

  • Before an IBM Spectrum Protect Plus user can run specific reports, permissions must be assigned to the user. See Access.

CONSIDERATIONS:

  • Storage capacity and usage values displayed by IBM Spectrum Protect Plus might vary between those that appear on the dashboard versus those that appear on the vSnap Storage Utilization Report. The dashboard displays live information, while the report reflects inventoried data and it displays information as indicated after the last inventory run. Variations are also due to differing rounding algorithms.

To view Backup Storage Utilization reports, expand Reports and Logs from the navigation menu, then click Reports. Expand the Backup Storage Utilization heading in the Reports pane. The following reports are available:

vSnap Storage Utilization Report

Review the storage utilization of your vSnap servers, including the availability status, free space, and used space. The vSnap Storage Utilization displays both an overview of your vSnap servers, as well as a detailed view of the individual virtual machines and databases protected on each vSnap server.

Use the report options to filter specific vSnap servers to display. For a detailed view of the individual virtual machines and databases protected on each vSnap server, enable the Show Resources protected per vSnap Storage parameter. This area of the report displays the virtual machines names, the associated site, location, and the compression/deduplication ratio of the vSnap server.
