Overview
The Restore Activity Report provides a comprehensive list of all restore operations of the protected workloads performed for a specified duration, such as VMware VMs, Nutanix AHV VMs, Hyper-V, File servers, NAS, MS SQL Servers, Oracle PBS, Oracle DTC, SAP HANA, and Azure VMs. It gives insight into the status of each restore job run for the workloads in each organization. Based on the status of the restore, you can perform an analysis and take corrective actions. For example, if the restore operation fails because of insufficient storage on the destination server, you can provide adequate storage based on your data requirements.
Enterprise Workloads Administrators can view the Restore Activity Report depending on their access privileges. If you are a Cloud-derived administrator or a Data Protection Officer, you can view the report of restore activities of all the resources. If you are an Organization-derived administrator, you can view the report of restore activities of your resources specific to the organizations you have access to. If you are a Group-derived administrator, you can view the report of restore activities of your resources related to the administrative groups that you manage.
Procedure
Go to the Global Navigation Panel > Reports > Hybrid Workloads. The Hybrid Workloads Reports page appears.
Click Restore Activity Report.
The report details page appears. By default, the Restore Activity report provides details of the restores that occurred in the last 30 days. By default, the report displays restore activity details for all workloads and organizations.
You can apply filters to the Restore Activity Report to fetch restore details as per your requirements. You can view the generated report, or send it through an email to the intended recipients. You can also download data in the widgets in the CSV and CSV-Summary formats. You can sort data in the Restore Activity Details table using single or multiple columns, and rearrange the columns in the table as per your requirement.
📝 Note
The report data is refreshed every two hours. The last updated time recorded for the report is displayed next to the report title. This timestamp follows the administrator’s time zone. However, the timestamps of the data fetched in the report follow the UTC time zone.
