Schedule history table

The Schedule history table shows the history of backup schedules for the host or cluster.

The number of listings of backup history that are shown depends on the number of days that are set by the SET EVENTRETENTION command on the IBM Spectrum Protect™ server.

The following data is shown in the schedule history table.

Table 1. Descriptions of columns in the schedule history table
Column Description
Schedule Start Time The actual date and time that the schedule started. If a schedule was missed, the scheduled start time is shown.
Name The name of the schedule.
Status The status of the schedule is based on all data movers that are associated with the schedule. The following states are possible:
Succeeded
The schedule ran to completion for all data movers. The details of individual VMs that were backed up or failed to be backed up are shown in the second table.
Failed
The schedule did not run to completion on at least one data mover.
In Progress
The schedule started on all data movers and has not completed.
Missed
The schedule failed to start on at least one data mover within the startup window for the schedule.
VM Succeeded The number of VMs that were successfully backed up during the schedule run.
VM Failures The number of VMs that failed to be backed up during the schedule run. If the schedule was missed or failed, a dash is displayed.
Duration The length of time that the schedule ran. The duration is measured from the start of the first schedule activity to the final schedule activity. If the schedule was missed or failed, a dash is displayed.

Schedule Detail table

When you select a schedule entry in the schedule history table, the Schedule Detail table shows the list of virtual machines (VMs) that were backed up for the selected schedule run.

When multiple nodes are associated with a schedule, the number of virtual machines (VMs) that are shown reflects the information from all the data mover nodes for that schedule run.

You can enter all or part of a VM name in the Filter field to display only VMs with names that contain the text string.

The following data is shown in the table.

Table 2. Descriptions of columns in the Schedule Detail table
Column Description
Name The name of the VM.
Status The backup status of the VM.
Succeeded
The VM was successfully backed up.
Failed
The VM failed to be backed up.
Start Time The date and time when the VM backup operation started.
Reason If the VM backup failed, an error code is provided. If the backup operation was successful, a zero (0) is displayed.
Duration The duration of the backup operation.
Data Transmitted The amount of data that was sent to the IBM Spectrum Protect server during the backup operation.
Backup Type The type of backup operation that was run for the VM:
Incremental
Backs up the blocks that changed since the last backup (full or incremental).
Full
Backs up a snapshot of an entire VM.
Backup Host The host that contains the data mover that is used to run the VM backup operation. For clusters, this data mover host can change due to failover clustering.

Tasks table

The Tasks table shows a list of recent tasks that started since the Data Protection for Microsoft Hyper-V Management Console was started.
