Enhanced reporting

Aside from displaying reports by users, version 3.0 also displays reports by date for every user, allowing administrators to quickly get a snapshot of backup jobs that ran for a particular day.

The four types of report are:
  • Report by user - Click here for a screen shot.
  • Report by date - Click here for a screen shot.
  • Inactivity report - Display users who did not run a backup in the last 24 hours
  • Report via email - Administrators can receive an email containing a summarized report for past 24 hours

Exporting client backup log to CSV

Administrators now have the ability to save the backup log generated by a client on the server machine. This data is stored in CSV (comma separated values) on the server, which can be easily imported into a relational database for further analysis.

This option is disabled by default. Follow the steps below to turn it on.
  • Log in as admin to the web interface
  • Click Configuration and then Advanced Configuration
  • Check Save client log
  • Click Save button

When this option is turned on, the Syncrify client will send the backup log to the server, which then converts that into a CSV file and saves it to a local folder. These files are located on the $INSTALLDIR/ClientBackupLogs folder.

File names use the following format:

DATE_ELAPSEDTIME.csv

The first token contains a date with the value represented in milliseconds since January 01, 1970. The second token holds the number of milliseconds the backup ran for.

File format

Every CSV file contains 3 columns:
  1. Action -Contains an integer from 1 to 7 signifying the state of the file.
    1. Entire file
    2. No change
    3. Partial file
    4. Deleted
    5. Restored - (Partial file)
    6. Error
    7. Warning
    8. Restored - (Entire file)
  2. File size -
  3. File path -
