Explore your data center using customizable report templates or by using parts of your IT infrastructure as entry points. Use Search to find reports, templates and dashboards across the portal.
Use the Reports tab to examine the catalog of templates, dashboards and reports - organized by products along with user-created, and system folders. This report is located here:
The consumption details are listed in a table, which you can sort by column headers. If you are in a large enterprise, this table can get unwieldy, so consider modifying the scope to filter the data by host group.
By default, the report lists backup sources in descending consumption order, with the heaviest consumer at the top. The following algorithm determines total consumption:
total disk backup + total tape backup = total consumption
Note:
Tip: Sort the data by Tape Backup or Disk Backup to identify heaviest storage device consumers.
