Status & Success Rate > Status > Failed Job Count report
Status & Success Rate provides reports of both basic and advanced success and failure rates across NetBackup operations in both per backup window and week-at-a-glance views.
The Success Rate provides advanced reporting on the NetBackup job success rates including the ability to filter out retry attempts and partially successful jobs for both Full and Incremental job schedules.
The Failed Job Count report aggregates failed jobs and shows these across a timeline. In reality, this report is the same as "all jobs" as no distinction on whether the failed job was first or last one is made. It provides visualization of whether a problematic trend exists. It can be reported on against any view or level within a view along with any of the key backup infrastructure components (backup server, media server) and attributes (policy, policy type, schedule, OS, product, transport type). Filtering is available on all components and attributes. The primary use case of the report is verification of whether actions taken to correct persistent failures produce results and reversing trends. The report can now also show trendlines with customized average periods.
