Consolidated Group Report
Overview
The Consolidated Group Report is a cumulative report of all backups and restores that have run on the backup server for all the clients under the particular group for the last one day, one week or one month. The report will be sent to the group in an Email automatically on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. Click here for sample of the report
The 'Email configuration for Consolidated Group Report' page, has two options for configuring the the consolidated reports to be sent.
Global Configuration - which configures consolidated report to be sent to a common email id list at the same schedule for all the Groups. Group Level Configuration - this option can be used to configure different email IDs and schedules of the consolidated report for particular Groups.
Global Configuration: This option gets a global recipients email id and a global schedule and configures all the current available Groups with a global email id and schedule for generating the Consolidated Email Report for the group.
Group Level Configuration: This option lists all the groups and for each group the Email IDs to which the consolidated report should be sent and the schedule (daily, weekly or monthly) for sending the reports can be specified.
The consolidated report can be manually generated and sent to the specified Email addresses by clicking on the 'Generate and Email Instant Report' link against the particular group.
The Consolidated Group Report can also be enabled for a group while adding a new Group in the 'Server Admin ->Group Management -> Add New Group link' or by editing a particular group by going to the 'Server Admin ->Group Management ->' and click on Edit Group Details (Action for the particular Group) page.
