Job Throughput by Client
This report shows the average throughput calculated per minute and aggregated for an hour for a given host. The throughput is averaged based on how the jobs are grouped. The report is designed to evaluate a single host; however, if you choose to run it for multiple hosts, it displays a summarized chart of clients from all the hosts. Currently, the report displays the chart of 20 clients causing the highest throughput, so that administrators can focus on specific clients to troubleshoot those responsible for the high throughput.
This report is a component of the Backup Server Performance Dashboard which helps administrators evaluate the reasons for slowness or bad performance in the backup servers or appliances.
To view the report, navigate to Backup Manager > Management Reports > Job Throughput by Client.
