About viewing breakup jobs data in custom reports

The Breakup Jobs option provides more granular-level reporting on the files that are backed up by NetBackup. You can see the breakup jobs data by creating custom reports in OpsCenter Analytics.

To view breakup jobs data in OpsCenter Analytics, ensure that the Breakup Jobs option is enabled in OpsCenter and then create a custom report of category Backup/Recovery and subcategory Job/Image/Media/Disk in a tabular format.

The custom report shows the following additional columns:

  • Backup Sub Job File Count

  • Backup Sub Job Size

In this example, you may notice some job directories named Other in addition to the actual job directories from NetBackup. The Other job directory exists in cases when the total backup size that we get from the primary job is different from the summation of the sizes of the individual files in the file list. To keep the total backup size consistent, a new job directory named Other is shown to make up the difference. Hence you see some additional file system objects named "Other" in OpsCenter other than the actual list that comes from NetBackup.
