The following report-specific options can be individually set to customize each Arcserve Backup Dashboard report. Each of these options has a default value, which can also be globally reset for all reports if necessary.
You can specify to filter the displayed list that is included in the report based upon the last number of days. The Last Days field contains a drop-down menu with a preset listing of the most commonly used data collection time periods (1, 3, 7, and 30 days) to select from. You can also manually enter a value in this field.
Default: 7 days
You can specify to filter the number of nodes that is included in the report. Depending upon other settings, this field displays the top specified number of nodes for the corresponding category. The Top nodes field contains a drop-down menu with a preset listing of the more commonly used data collection number of nodes (5, 10, 20, 40, 100, 200, and 400) to select from. In addition, you can also manually enter any value in this field.
Default: 5 nodes
You can specify to filter the displayed list of nodes that is included in the report based upon the backup method that was used for each node. The Backup Method is a drop-down menu and lets you select All, Full, Incremental, or Differential.
Default: All
You can specify to filter the displayed list of nodes that is included in the report based upon the backup type that was used for each node. The Backup Method is a drop-down menu and lets you select All, Normal Backup, or Synthetic Backup.
Default: All
You can specify to filter the displayed information that is included in the report based upon the corresponding Arcserve Backup server. The Server is a drop-down menu and lets you select all Arcserve Backup servers or an individual Arcserve Backup server (Primary or Member) that is part of the Arcserve Backup Domain that you are logged into. (If you are logged in as a Stand-alone server, this list only displays your Stand-alone server).
Default: All Servers
Specifies the tier category for the nodes you want to monitor.
The node tiers are configured into three categories: High Priority, Medium Priority, and Low Priority. The Node Tier field contains a drop-down menu listing each tier category to select from.
For more information, see Node Tiers.
Default: All Tiers
You can specify to filter the displayed list of messages that is included in the report based upon the severity of the message. The Severity Filter is a drop-down menu and lets you select All, Information, Errors, Warnings, or Errors and Warnings.
Default: Errors and Warnings
The Branch drop-down menu lets you specify how to filter the information being displayed on the Global Dashboard Console. The selection from this menu will be applied to all displayed dashboard reports. From this menu you can select to display dashboard-related information for all branch sites or filtered for just the branch sites that are not assigned to a branch group, a specified branch group, or a specified single branch site. The Ungrouped filter will display all branch sites that are not part of any branch group.
Default: All Branch Sites
Each dashboard report also contains a Branch filter drop-down menu to let you specify how to filter the information being displayed on that report. This selection will only be applied to the corresponding dashboard report and allows you to further filter the displayed information by a specific branch site within the specified branch group.
Default: All
Each dashboard report that contains a Node Name filter also has the capability to include a Node Group filter. The Node Group filter is only displayed on a report if a Node Group already exists. If a Node Group exists, the group name will be displayed in the Node Group filter drop-down menu and lets you specify how to filter the information being displayed on that report. This selection will only be applied to the corresponding dashboard report and allows you to further filter the displayed information by a specific node within the specified node group.
For Global Dashboard, if you select the Global View and also select multiple branches to monitor, only the Node Groups which exist in all the selected branches will be displayed in the Node Group drop-down menu.
For example, if you have a Branch Group which has three branch sites (Branch 1, Branch 2, and Branch 3) and within each branch site you have the following Node Groups.
When you select this Branch Group in the Branch filter, only Group B will be displayed in the Node Group filter because this is the only Node Group that exists in all selected branches.
Note: Node Groups (or Server Groups) are created in Arcserve Backup from the Backup Manager (or from the Job Status Manager). For more information about creating Node Groups, see the Administration Guide.
