The repository summary dashboard provides overview details, capacity planning information and performance analysis for the chosen backup repository for the last week or month.
The Repository Overview section outlines the following details:
- The number of tasks that are currently assigned to the repository
- The number of virtual machines in backups stored on the repository
- The amount of storage space occupied by full VM backups
- The amount of storage space occupied by incremental VM backups
- The number of VM disk processing tasks that can be assigned to the repository at the same time (as configured in backup repository settings)
The Capacity Planning section outlines the following details:
- Storage capacity of the repository
- The amount of free storage space on the repository
- The number of days before the repository runs out of free space.
To forecast the value, Veeam ONE Monitor uses a trend that is calculated based on historical statistics — it analyzes how fast the amount of free space on the repository was decreasing in the past and uses this historical statistics to forecast how soon the repository will run out of space.
The Free Space Usage chart shows the amount of used storage space against the amount of available space on the repository. If free space on the repository is running low, you might need to take some anticipatory action — for example, free up storage space on the repository, revise your backup retention policy or consider pointing jobs to a scale-out backup repository.
The Backup Window Utilization chart shows the cumulative amount of time that the repository was busy with backup job tasks and backup copy job tasks during the past week or month. The chart can help you reveal possible resource bottlenecks on the repository side. If the backup window on the chart is abnormally large, this can evidence that the required I/O operations cannot complete fast enough, and your target is presenting a bottleneck for the whole backup data processing conveyor. To identify performance bottlenecks, you can switch to repository Performance Charts.
Scale-Out Backup Repository Summary
The dashboard provides overview details, capacity planning information and performance analysis for the chosen scale-out backup repository for the last week or month.
The Repository Overview section provides the following details:
- The number of tasks that are currently assigned to the repository
- Repository type - Scale-out backup repository
- The number of extents of the scale-out backup repository
- The number of virtual machines in backups stored on the repository
- The amount of storage space occupied by full VM backups
- The amount of storage space occupied by incremental VM backups
- The way backup files are stored on extents of the scale-out backup repository
The Capacity Planning section outlines the following details:
- Storage capacity of the repository
- The amount of free storage space on the repository
- The number of days before the repository runs out of free space.
To forecast the value, Veeam ONE Monitor uses a trend that is calculated based on historical statistics — it analyzes how fast the amount of free space on the repository was decreasing in the past and uses this historical statistics to forecast how soon the repository will run out of space.
The Free Space Usage chart shows the amount of used storage space against the amount of available space on the repository. If free space on the repository is running low, you might need to take some anticipatory action — for example, free up storage space on the repository.
The Top Extents by Used Space chart shows backup repositories with the greatest amount of used storage space. For every repository in the chart, you can see the amount of used storage space against the amount of available space.
