View List Of Client Backup Schedules

How to get here in the StoreGrid Web Console?
  In the top menu, select: "Server Admin->Customer Management" and click on the "Customer Name" link in the left hand side tree. This will list the clients under this customer. Now click on the client name to view the list of backups for that client.

This page lists the backup schedules from the client in a table format. The following information is showed for each backup schedule:

Backup Name - The name of the backup schedule as configured by the client. Clicking on the link here will open the Server Side Backup Schedule Report page which will give detailed Backup Reports, Restore Reports, Delete Reports and Retention Reports for the backup schedule. And the icon in this column can be in different state. The following describes the different state the backup schedule can be in:

Backup Location - The directory in which the backup data from this backup schedule is stored. The details are available in the mouse over-pop-up dialog over the backup name link.

Status - The status of the backup indicates whether the backup is idle or backup is in progress or restore is in progress or replication is in progress or delete is in progress or move backup is in progress or retention cleanup is in progress or Server disaster recovery is in progress.

Last Backed up Time - The completed time of the last backup when the client backed up at least one file.

Last connected time - The time the client last connected to the backup server for running a backup process. This will include backups where client connected to the server but didn't upload anything to the server.

Files - Total number of files backed up as part of this backup schedule.

Used Space - The total amount of disk space used by the backup data from this backup schedule.

Original Size - The original size of this schedule's backup data in the client.

Actions - The icons under this column are links to various features to enable you to administer and manage the backup schedule of clients.

1. Abort Backup (Applicable only to Backup server) - Clicking on this icon will abort the backup immediately and no further data will be transferred to the backup server. However the backup will resume at the next scheduled time.

2. Suspend Client Side Restore (Applicable only to Backup server) - Clicking on this icon will suspend the Client Side Restore (Restore initiated from the client), but can be resumed only from the client side. The suspended restore process will remain suspended till it is resumed from the client again.

3. Suspend Server Side Restore - Clicking on this icon will suspend the Server Side Restore (Restore initiated from the server). The suspended restore process will remain suspended till it is resumed from the server again.

4. Resume Server Side Restore - Clicking on this icon will resume the Server Side Restore (Restore initiated from the server).

5. Activate/Deactivate Backup - This Activate/Deactivate action can help the Backup Server administrator to decide whether to accept/reject the individual client's backup.

   If a backup is Deactivated for a client on the Backup Server, further backup schedules from the StoreGrid client for that backup is rejected by the backup server.

   StoreGrid Backup Server Administrator can Activate the client backup again by clicking the same action.

6. Replicate Now - This "Replicate Now" action will immediately schedule Replication for a particular backup if the replication for the backup is in idle status.

7. Resume/Suspend Replication - This "Resume/Suspend Replication" action is used to resume a suspended backup (for replication) or to suspend a backup (for replication) when it is either idle or in replication progress.

8. Proceed to Restore Backup - Clicking on this icon will take you to the server side restore page where you can restore the backed up data.

9. Proceed to Delete Backup - Clicking on this icon will take you to the delete backup page from where you can delete the backup data associated with the schedule.

10. Run Retention Cleanup - You can run the retention cleanup process by clicking on this action. The retention cleanup process will delete any excess version files present in the server. Like for example, if the retention version count or retention period configuration is reduced in the client machine, then the backup server can be forced to clean up these excess versions of the files by running the Run Retention Cleanup(the client should have connected at least once after the retention was changed for the backup schedule in the client)
