NetWorker Historic Collection uses mminfo command to extract backup information and save sets for a given time frame.

By default, the mminfo command gets information about the Backup media and save sets that were completed during the last 24 hours. This includes: the volume name, client name, creation date, amount of data saved to the volume, level of backup performed, and the name of the save set.

Windows:

 C:\Program Files\Aptare\mbs\bin\networker\nwhistoricevents.bat

Linux:

<APTARE HOME>/mbs/bin/networker/nwhistoricevents.sh

To capture data from a specific period, use the following utility:

nwhistoricevents.{sh|bat} <EventCollectorID> <ServerID> ["<Start Date>" "<End Date>"] [verbose]

Where:

The EventCollectorID and the ServerID can be found by executing the following utility:
For Windows: C:\opt\Aptare\mbs\bin\listcollectors.bat
For Linux: /opt/aptare/mbs/bin/listcollectors.sh
yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss date format.
Specifying verbose will log the NetWorker commands called to the eventcollector.log file.

Note:

If the Start and End Dates are not specified, the utility will capture events that occurred in the last 24 hours.
