Viewing Backup Properties

After a backup job successfully creates a backup of an oVirt VM according to the specified schedule, or after you create an active full backup of a VM manually, the backup is displayed under the Backups node in the Home view of the Veeam Backup & Replication console. Each backup and the collection of restore points created for this backup are represented with a set of properties, such as:

• Name — the name of a protected VM.
• Original Size — the total amount of disk space allocated to the VM.
• File Name — the name of a restore point.
• Data Size — the amount of processed VM data.
• Backup Size —  the amount of backed-up VM data.
• Data Reduction — the ratio between the data size and backup size.
• Date — the date and time when the restore point was created.
• Type — the type of backup files inside the backup chain (full or incremental).
• Status — the result of the most recent malware scan performed for the restore point.

To view backup properties, do the following:

1. Open the Home view.
2. In the inventory pane, select Backups.
3. In the working area, right-click the backup and select Properties.
