Images on Media Report

Before running the Imaged on Media report, select the following report settings, then click Run Report:

The Images on Media report lists the contents of the media as recorded in the NetBackup image catalog. You can generate this report for any type of media (including disk) and filter it according to client, media ID, or path.


Note   Note    The Images on Media report does not show information for media used for NetBackup catalog backups.

The following table explains the columns in the Images on Media report:

Images on Media Report 

Column Meaning

Backup ID

Identifier that NetBackup assigns when it performs the backup.

Blockmap

Indicates whether this fragment is a blockmap (Yes or No).

Block Size

Size of the data blocks used to write the backup. When multiplexing is used, the block size can vary between backups on the same volume.

Client

Name of the client that was backed up.

Copy Number

Greater than 1 only if there are multiple copies.

Compressed

Y if the backup is compressed.

Density

Density of the device that produced the backup.

Device Written On

Device where the backup was written. This is the drive index configured in Media Manager.

Encrypted

Y if the backup is encrypted. Encryption and decryption is possible only with the NetBackup Encryption option.

Expiration Date/Time

Expiration date and time for the corresponding copy number; not the expiration of first copy.

File Number

File number on the media.

Fragment Number

Fragment number. IDX (Index file) if the fragment contains true image restore information or is for an individual-file-restore-from-raw backup. For TIR backups, this, displays as TIR.

Kilobytes

Size of the fragment in kilobytes. This value does not include the space for tape headers between backups. A fragment size of 0 is possible in a multiplexed backup.

Policy

NetBackup policy for which the backup was created.

Media Date/Time

Date and time when the copy will expire. Only valid on fragment 1 of a copy.

MediaID

Media ID of the volume that has the backup image. For disk, it is a pathname.

Media Server

Media Type

Type of storage and can be removable (Rmed) or disk (Disk).

Multiplexed

Y if the copy is multiplexed. Valid for all the fragment numbers.

Number of Files

Number of files in the backup.

Offset

Applies only to optical disk and is the byte offset on the media where the backup image begins. Ignore this value for tapes and magnetic disk.

Policy Type

Type of policy (for example, Standard, MS-Windows-NT, and so on).

Remainder

Bytes written beyond kilobytes filed. Size of fragment is exactly:
Kilobytes*1024 + Remainder.

Retention Period

Retention period for the backups on this volume. An asterisk after the retention period number means that the volume can have multiple retention levels. When there are multiple retention levels, the number shown was the first level assigned. See Retention.
