- Veeam Backup for AWS jobs

## Viewing Jobs Calendar

Jobs Calendar marks the monitored job types with the following colors:

- *Green* — backup job.
- *Blue* — replication job.
- *Aquamarine* — backup copy job.
- *Beige* — tape job.
- *Brown* — VM and file copy job.
- *Dark green* — SureBackup.

Jobs Calendar represents completed and scheduled job sessions differently:

- Completed job sessions are transparent.

  In the **Month** view, completed sessions are filled with color.

- Scheduled job sessions are filled with color.

  In the **Month** view, scheduled sessions are transparent.

- Continuous job sessions scheduled for backup window periods are fully colored and connected with dashes.

  If a continuous job schedule is split into smaller schedules, the job band will also be split.

To get brief information on a specific job, do one of the following:

- In the **Month** view, hover the cursor over the job name in the calendar.
- In the **Day** and **Week** view, hover the cursor over the job name in the **Job** column.
- In the **Day** and **Week** view, hover the cursor over the colored band of the job.

::: note

For backup copy jobs, the job list will include a separate line for each source job. The job name is presented in the *Backup copy job\\Source job* format.

For backup agent jobs, the job list will include a separate line for each backup agent. The job name is presented in the *Backup agent job - backup agent name* format.

:::

The purple band above the calendar indicates how many jobs sessions ran simultaneously during the time period. The more parallel job sessions, the more saturated the band becomes. To see the exact number of job sessions for a specific period, hover the pointer over the purple band. Note that the purple band is available in the **Day** and **Week** view only.

By default, jobs are sorted by name. You can change that by selecting the **Job types** or **Earliest job session / Job schedule** option in the **Sort by** drop-down list. Note that sorting is available in the **Day** and **Week** view only.

Chained jobs are marked with a chain-like sign. To see information on a job after which a chained job starts, hover the cursor over the chained job color band.

The currently running job sessions are marked with a right-pointing triangle in a circle.

Disabled jobs are marked with horizontal line in a circle.

::: tip

- You can include jobs that do not have any job sessions during the selected period into Jobs Calendar. To do that, switch the **Show jobs outside period** toggle to *On*.

  Note that the toggle is available in the **Day** and **Week** view only.

- If you want to zoom in the time period and all scheduled jobs, use **Scale**.

  Note that the **Scale** slider is available in the **Day** and **Week** view only.
