Veeam Backup Files Growth

This report allows you to track how the size of your backup files was changing during the selected interval and to identify jobs that consume too much storage space on repository.

The report provides a general overview of your backup infrastructure and displays information on the total capacity, free space left on repositories, number of backup jobs, available restore points and VMs stored in the repositories.

  • Top 10 Jobs by Largest Backup File Size table shows jobs that produce the largest backup files.
  • Details section displays information on repository space usage. For each repository, the report provides a chart that illustrates the amount of free space left on the repository, as well as a details table that shows the job type (full or incremental), creation date, the restore point file size, the backup file size and the number of VMs included in the job.
