The type of host in a backup environment, such as Client or Media Server.

Byte Size

Custom Filter

Group Chart By

Enables selection of Chart Per Object (each chart is for a single object, with one or more metric lines) or Chart Per Metric (each chart is for one metric, with one or more objects represented as lines). This is a required scope selector component if the report template includes a field of type, Group by Object.
