Managing CA ARCserve Backup › Reporting

Reporting

CA SRM provides extensive reporting on many aspects of CA ARCserve Backup activity, devices, and media. You can schedule reports for execution at regular times or on demand. CA SRM produces a variety of report output formats and redirects them for distribution through email.

You can combine CA SRM error reporting for media and backup devices with threshold monitoring for these objects. For example, you can create a report displaying only media elements that have errors above or below a specified threshold.

CA SRM provides several predefined report formats that you can use without modification. Additionally, you can generate custom reports using the Query service, and define the source objects to report on, the information to be included, the format (spreadsheet columns), and the output of the report.
