Object Details

You can only access detail reports through a link presented in the context of a main report, providing additional information that augments the main report. Detail reports cannot be generated, customized, or saved, as they are specific to the report from which they were derived. Therefore, they will not be available in search results.

Use Search to find the main report or a dashboard by name. Search is case insensitive, supports partial entries, and will display a list of potential matches.

The Object Details report provides information about backup sources other than known hosts, such as datastores, folders and so on. Access this report from numerous main reports using the Source link, such as:

  • Job Summary Report

  • Consecutive Errors by Client

  • Data Protection Dashboard

  • Failed Backup Sources

  • Billing and Chargeback Summary
