Job History FAQ

How is the recovery history of stub recalls for user-defined archive set or other partition displayed?

When viewing the Recovery History of Stub Recalls (via the Stub Recall Jobs tab), it will be displayed as originating from the defaultArchiveSet and the first Partition even if a user-defined Archive Set or other partition were used during the recall. Partitions are applicable to Domino Mailbox Archiver.

Can I view the stub recall job history for File Archiver for Windows recall jobs initiated from the physical node of a cluster?

No. The stub recall job history cannot be viewed for File Archiver for Windows recall jobs initiated from the physical node of a cluster in cases where only the driver is loaded on that node. However, browse recovery jobs which are initiated from the virtual server can still be viewed in job history. To obtain statistics on stub recall jobs in this scenario, we recommend running the Stub Recall Summary Report. In order to see data in the Stub Recall Job Summary Report, you must configure the nDMRSendFileStatus additional setting. For instructions, see How to Generate the Report.

How do I prune the recovery history information?

Recovery history information can be pruned based on the number of days established in the Days to keep the failed/killed backup job and other job histories option available from the Media Management Configuration (Data Aging) dialog box available in the Control Panel. For information on data aging options, see Media Management Configuration: Data Aging.
