Storage Consumption reports show statistical information on how much space is occupied in your backup repositories.
Each report consists of the following fields and shows information per backup repository.
Field | Description |
Description | Shows the static description of a report. |
Reporting Interval | Shows the time interval for which the report was generated. |
License Information | Shows the product name and a license type. |
Summary | Shows occupied storage space of all backup repositories added to the scope. |
Top 5 repositories by storage usage | Shows top 5 repositories the backup data on which occupies the most disk space. |
Top 5 repositories by growth | Shows top 5 repositories in which the space is occupied most frequently. |
Daily Change Rate (in GB) | Information is shown per backup repository. |
Repository Growth (in GB) |
Consider the following:
- Repositories that have no statistical information will not be included in the report. For example:
- You have added a new backup repository, as described in Adding Backup Repositories.
Since nothing has been placed to a backup repository after it was added, no statistical information is available, therefore, this repository will not be included in the report.
- You have upgraded your previous version of Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 with a newer one, as described in Upgrading to Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 3.0.
In this case, all the repositories in your environment will be excluded from the report.
- Repositories whose Daily Change and Total Size values are less than 10MB will not be included in the report.
For example, a report is said to be built starting from 01/01/2019 to 31/01/2019, and the period from 01/01/2019 to 09/01/2019 is empty (i.e. both the Daily Change and Total Size values are less than 10MB). In this scenario, such a report will only be showing statistical information starting from 10/01/2019.
To generate a report for each organization added to the scope, do the following:
- In the Organizations view, on the Home tab, select Reports > Storage Consumption.
- Set up a time interval.
- Click Browse to specify a location to save the report.
Use the Save as type drop-down list in the Save As dialog to specify the format (.pdf or .csv) in which to save the report.
- Select the Open report after publishing checkbox to open the generated report using the default application.
- Click Finish.
