If you do not select a time zone, data will be collected for this time period in the time zone set on a machine where you run the report. ::: Aggregation Type: defines whether the data in the report will be aggregated *Hourly* , *Daily* or *Weekly* . Scope: defines a list of Veeam Backup & Replication servers that will be analyzed in the report (by default, the **Veeam Backup Server** **Group** is selected). The **Add Group** option returns a Group and all objects that the group contains. The **Add Object** option returns only the selected object. Backup Copy Jobs: defines a list of backup copy jobs to include in the report. Accelerators: defines pairs of source-to-target WAN accelerators to include in the report. ::: note If you want to include in the report backup copy jobs without accelerators, select the Without Accelerators option. ::: Job Status: defines whether the report will analyze job sessions that completed with the *Success* , *Failed* or *Warning* status. ## Sample Usage Report on the amount of data transmitted between a specific pair of WAN accelerators during this week. ### Instructions 1. Open the Backup Copy Job Overview report. 2. From the **From** list, select *This Week* > *Monday* . From the **To** list, select *This Week* > *Friday* . 3. From the **Aggregation Type** list, select *Daily* . 4. In the **Scope** section, select the **Veeam Backup Server Group** and click **Remove** . Then select the backup server to include in the report. Click **Add Group** . In the **Add Group** window, click **Options** . In the **Options** window, click **Add** . In the **Class Name** search box, enter *backup server* and click **Search** . Select the *Veeam Backup Server* class in the list of search results, click **Add** and click **OK** . In the **Options** windows, click **OK** to apply the filter. In the **Add Group** window, click **Search** . The search will return a list of objects that belong to the *Veeam Backup Server* class. Select the server, click **Add** and click **OK** . 5. In the **Backup Copy Jobs** list, select the necessary backup copy jobs. 6. In the **Accelerators** list, select the necessary pair of WAN accelerators. 7. In the **Job Status** list, select *Success* and *Warning* . 8. Click **Run** to view the report. ### Report Output The **Summary** charts will display total day-by-day traffic usage history: - The **Traffic Efficiency (GB)** chart will show the actual amount of traffic read from the source repository and the amount of traffic transmitted over the network to the target repository - The **Traffic Savings by Day (GB)** chart will show the amount of traffic saved on each day of the reporting interval (that is, the difference between the amount of read traffic and the amount of transferred traffic) The **Accelerator Details** table will provide the following information for each pair of WAN accelerators used by backup copy jobs:
|
Column |
Description |
|---|---|
|
Source WAN Accelerator |
Name of the source WAN accelerator. |
|
Target WAN Accelerator |
Name of the target WAN accelerator. |
|
Backup Copy Job |
Name of backup copy job that uses this pair of WAN accelerators to transfer data. |
|
Restore Points Transferred |
Number of restore points transferred by this pair of WAN accelerators. |
|
Backup Size (GB) |
Original backup file size (in GB), that is, the size of backup data read from the source repository. |
|
Transferred Data (GB) |
Actual amount of data (in GB) transferred using the WAN accelerators to the target repository. |
|
Traffic Savings (GB) |
Amount of saved traffic (in GB), that is, the difference between the amount of read backup data and the amount of data transferred over network to the target backup repository. |
