Asset details

Module: Endpoint Backup v2

NAVIGATION  Click green, red, yellow, or gray bars in the Last 30 Backups column for assets on the Endpoint Backup v2 dashboard.

PERMISSIONS  Asset details are available to users with Superuser and Admin roles.

The Asset Details panel gives you a summary of a protected asset and a dated history of available recovery points.
Use it to confirm an asset's identity, license, and protection status, check storage usage, and review or download the changes and errors recorded for each backup.

IMPORTANT  Asset Details are only available for Endpoint Backup v2 assets now. Azure assets will have Asset Details later.

Backup success levels

Each recovery point carries a color-coded status indicator that reflects how much of the backup run succeeded.
The success rate is the proportion of files processed during the run that were backed up.
Hover over an indicator to display a tooltip describing the status.

Status Color Description
Successful Green 85% or more of the files were backed up.
Partially successful Amber Fewer than 85% of the files were backed up.
The backup is usable, but some files are missing.
Read Working with backup errors for more help.
Degraded Red

Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) failed during the backup.
The backup may not be usable and requires attention.
Read VSS error codes for more information about troubleshooting VSS errors.

NOTE  A degraded backup does not count as a successful backup in BackupIQ health calculations.

Missed, Offline, or No backup scheduled Gray No backup ran during the period.
The endpoint was offline, the backup was missed, or no schedule applies.

Recovery points

The Recovery Points section lists the asset's available recovery points grouped by the date they were created.
Click a date to expand or collapse the recovery points captured on that day.
Each recovery point row shows a color-coded status indicator, described in Backup success levels, as well as the values described below.

NOTE  If the asset is protected with a self-managed encryption key, you must provide that key before you can download changes or errors for its recovery points.

Column Description
Date The day on which the recovery points were created.
Click the date to expand or collapse its recovery points.
Time The time at which the recovery point was created.
Changes The number of files that changed since the previous recovery point.
When change data is available, a download icon appears next to the count so you can download the changed-file data as a Comma-separated Values (CSV) file.
The CSV file lists each changed file with its full path, the type of change, and the amount of data changed.
Errors The number of errors recorded during the backup.
When error data is available, a download icon appears next to the count so you can download the error details as a CSV file.
Working with backup errors gives help on dealing with specific error types.

FAQ

Why does the Last Backup field show a dash?

A dash (-) in the Last Backup field means no backup has completed for the asset yet.

This is expected for a newly added asset or for an asset that is currently Offline and has not yet produced a successful backup.
