How to Display Job Details

  • Article

Applies To: System Center Data Protection Manager 2010

In the Monitoring task area, on the Jobs tab, jobs can be grouped by Protection Group, Computer, Status, or Type. By default, jobs are grouped by status. The Quick Search functionality in DPM helps you to quickly find information about single or multiple jobs. To find more information about a particular job, you can use the Details pane. The jobs view can be further refined by including or excluding synchronization jobs, or by using a specific filter. The details vary, depending on the type of job selected. For example, the details for a replica creation job specify status, start time, how long the job has been running or how long it took to complete the job, how much data was copied, data source details, the number of protection group members, and the name of the protection group to which the replica belongs.

Note

For consistency check jobs, DPM displays the number of files scanned and the number of files that were fixed.
