Activity Log Messages

At the end of each backup job, a summary of each session is displayed in the Activity Log. Depending on what occurs during backup, the summary includes messages with the following information:

• The status of the job. Depending on what you selected to back up and what occurred during the backup job, you will receive one of three statuses:
  • Successful--All selected mailboxes and root public folders were backed up.
  • Incomplete--One or more of the selected mailboxes and root public folders were backed up. At least one mailbox or root public folder failed to back up.
  • Failed--No selected mailboxes and root public folders were backed up.

  Note: Individual folders, messages, and attachments do not affect the status of the job. If these items are not backed up, the details will be listed in the skip log in the agent log directory. If you would rather view the skip log information in the Activity Log or if you want to view it in the Activity Log in addition to the skip log, you can change the value of the Skip Log Setting. For more information on the Skip Log Setting, see Configure the Agent For Document Level Backup and Restore. This skip log is also useful for tracking corrupt messages in an Exchange Server.
