Managing Backups396
The charts in Backup Manager provide a wealth of information about your backups. You can
easily obtain detailed information about a data point displayed in a chart by right-clicking the data
point. For example, assume you are looking at a Service Level Agreement (SLA) chart on the
Summary tab, and you want to obtain more information about a backup performed yesterday. You
could right-click the bar yesterday’s date and select Show Details. You are then shown the Jobs
tab, which displays the additional details of that data point, such as the backup status of each
client, in addition to the start and end time of the backup on that client.
The following table explains what is displayed when you click the Show Details right-click menu
option on the Summary tab.
Reachable Storage

host, such as the following:
• Free volumes on current storage systems
• LUNs mapped to host, but not mounted with file systems
• Free volumes on other storage systems in host fabrics
• Free volumes on all other storage systems
