Mission Control - Backup
Explore your data center using customizable report templates or by using parts of your IT infrastructure as entry points. Use Search to find reports, templates and dashboards across the portal.
Use the Reports tab to examine the catalog of templates, dashboards and reports - organized by products along with user-created, and system folders.
To view the report, navigate to Backup Manager > Administration Reports > Mission Control - Backup.
The Mission Control report provides you with a comprehensive snapshot of your backup and restore event status. Using this report, you can easily identify the sources (objects or clients) that have had no backups or failed backups. And, you can drill down to ascertain the root cause of unsuccessful backups. Organizations use this report to ensure Sarbanes-Oxley compliance, as it shows ultimate backup success over time.
When you generate this report, the Report Designer prompts you to select scope parameters, including the options to:
Ignore retries
Exclude clients with successful backups
Exclude clients with no backups -Only the sources with at least one "No Jobs" or "Failed" indicator will be shown. Note that if the last column corresponds to the current day and the indicator is "No Jobs" and all other indicators for the row are successful, the row will be considered a "success" and therefore will be excluded from the report.
By Primary Server only- Report on Primary Servers only. For example, if a source is backed up by two Primary Servers, you can avoid having duplicate jobs in the list.
This generated report is based on clients of Backup Server(s). Select one or more clients in the Report Scope to filter the report data.
Currently, the following parameters are available in the Report Scope dialog box.
Table: Report Scope parameters
Parameters | Description | Remark |
---|---|---|
Host Group | The report can be generated for one or more Host Groups. | For more details on the Report Scope dialog box, see NetBackup IT Analytics User Guide > Generate and maintain reports > Report Scope section. |
All Hosts | This report can be generated for all the Backup Hosts or any of its sub-set. | |
For Host = All Backup Servers | One or more Backup Servers can be selected from the scope to run the report for all clients corresponding to the Backup Server. | For example: Click Modify. Expand Hosts > All Backup Servers > Primary Servers (if any) > Policies or Clients. Select any node. |
Servers = All Data Domain Servers | Not valid for this report. | |
Attributes | This report can be filtered on specific Host Attributes associated with the Backup Host(s). |
Note:
If multiple conditions are selected in the Report Scope, NetBackup IT Analytics displays collective data with the selected criteria from the database using the AND condition.
Based on the parameters selected in the Report Scope, the following are the scenarios in which the data for the report will be displayed,.
Scenario 1 - All Hosts: If any one Host is selected from parent All Hosts, the data is displayed for the selected Host in the node.
Scenario 2 - All-Client-Backup-Server-Host-Group: You have a host group named as All-Client-Backup-Server-Host-Groupwhich is the parent node. Further, this All-Client-Backup-Server-Host-Groupnode has Two Backup Servers asServer1andServer2. If you have selectedAll-Client-Backup-Server-Host-Group, which is the parent node, then the data in the report will be displayed for theclients of Server1 and Server2.
Scenario 3 - All Backup Servers:
If All Backup Server node is selected, the data is displayed of the clients.
If any one or more than one Clients from All Backup Server node is selected, the data is displayed of the selected Client(s).
If any one or more than one Policies from All Backup Server node is selected, the data is displayed of the selected Policy(s).
Scenario 4 - Attributes: If any one or more than one Attributes is selected from the Report Scope dialog box, the data is displayed of all Backup Hosts for the selected Attribute.
Scenario 5 All Data Domain: This is invalid selection as this report is generated only based on Backup Host(s).
Note:
A row can be expanded to list underlying details for NetBackup, and HP Data Protector servers. For IBM Spectrum Protect (TSM) and Backup Exec, an expansion arrow will not be available. Also, the Flashback policy type (used for VM backups) is not supported; however, an expansion arrow may be displayed, with no underlying details available.
Table: Mission Control - Backup
Column name | Description |
---|---|
Source |
Displays a row for each client or object within the report scope. Click the source to drill down to either the Host Details or Object Details reports. Some Sources will have an expansion arrow next to them, to show the underlying file systems. |
Current Date Range |
The date range that is currently displayed in the report is always listed at the top of the report. If the date range is beyond the current day, or before your backup environment data started being pushed to the Reporting Database, the event indicator will be "No Jobs." |
Status Indicators |
Each column for every source contains an event status indicator. The indicator always reflects the most serious status if there is more than one event for that source on that day. For example, if there are three successful events and one failure, the indicator will be a failure. Click on any of the indicators to go to the summary. See Job Summary Report . for all events associated with that server on that day. Once in the Job Summary Report, you can drill down to Job Details and even add a note to indicate the strategy for resolving an issue--thus, providing an audit trail. |
