All Organizations in the Scope
To explore the backup content created for all organizations added to the scope, right-click the root Organizations node and select either of the following options:
- Explore latest state of <date>. To explore the latest backup state.
- Explore point-in-time state. To select a point-in-time state when the backup was created. For more information, see Explore Point-in-time State
The Explore point-in-time state option allows you to choose between the latest available state and the particular point-in-time state. When using the latter option, you can select the particular date using the calendar control.
You can also select Show items that have been deleted by user and/or Show all versions of items that have been modified by user checkboxes to view historic data.
To display historic data, Veeam uses other restore points from the repository. Such restore points keep data as per the backup date. If items had been deleted or modified by the user prior to the initial execution of a backup job or during the execution of a backup job, no historic data will be available. The reason is that the backup repository contains the most recent version of the backup file.
