Veeam ONE Client allows you to perform log analysis according to the defined schedule or manually:

• When a scheduled log analysis session starts, Veeam ONE Client analyzes Veeam Backup & Replication logs for the last 48 hours or since the last successful log analysis session (whichever is later).

By default, Veeam ONE Analytics service is set to perform log analysis daily at 7:00 AM. To change the default log analysis schedule, see Scheduling Automated Log Analysis.

• When you start a log analysis session manually, Veeam ONE Client analyzes Veeam Backup & Replication logs for the last 24 hours or since the last successful log analysis session (whichever is later).

For details on starting log analysis manually, see Starting Log Analysis Manually.
