# Database Log Protection History

This report provides historical overview of all database log backup jobs. It also includes the list of protected and unprotected databases for each virtual and physical machine. The report helps you ensure that critical databases are properly protected and that transaction logs for these databases have been successfully backed up.

A database is considered to be *Protected* if it was backed up at least once during the last backup job session. A database is considered to be *Unprotected* if it was not backed up during the last backup job session.

- The **Summary** display includes the following elements:
  - The **Databases by Protection State** chart shows the number of protected and unprotected databases and databases excluded from processing.
  - The **SLA** chart shows how many log backup intervals within the specified RPO period completed with successful log shipment (in percentage).
  - The **Job Sessions by Status** chart shows results of job sessions.
  - The **Summary** panel shows the number of configured backup jobs, the total number of VMs and computers included in these jobs, the number of processed application servers and clusters, and the total number of hosted databases.

- The **Details** table provides additional information on the efficiency of executed jobs, number of protected, unprotected and excluded databases, number of missed intervals, actual difference between configured log backup interval and time actually required.
- The **Backup Copy Job Details** table provides information about each backup copy job. This table helps users monitor job progress and troubleshoot issues with backup copy operations.
- The **Database Protections Details** table provides protection details for monitored databases. This table enables users to verify database backup coverage and identify databases that may require attention.

  ::: note

  Values displayed in the SLA column on this report are for the average of the selected period, not the latest session.
