This report provides high-level drive details for the reporting period that you specified in the scope.
Note:
If you are accessing this report from the navigation pane, be sure to define a host group scope that is unique by product type--for example, only NetBackup servers. Also, this report is not supported for Veritas Backup Exec or IBM Spectrum Protect (TSM) data because data collection does not capture the association between backup jobs and tapes.
