Graph: Aux Copy Trending
-
Y-Axis (Size): Measured in multiples of bytes, this axis indicates the size of data over time.
-
X-Axis (Date): Timeline for the selected range.
-
Lines:
-
App Size Copied (Blue): Application-level data successfully copied.
-
App Size To Copy (Purple): Pending application data yet to be copied.
-
Storage Size Copied (Orange): Total size of data transferred at the storage level.
This graph helps determine how much of the expected data has been copied and trends in completion.
Graph: Write Throughput Trending
-
Y-Axis (Throughput Per Hour GB): Indicates the copy rate in GB/hour.
-
X-Axis (Date): Represents the progression over the selected dates.
-
Line (Light Blue): Shows fluctuations in write speed per hour.
Use this view to assess backup network or disk throughput efficiency. The graph shows a separate coloured line for each secondary copy selected.
Tab: Auxiliary Copy Status
Filters
-
Storage Policy Name /Copy Name: Specify which policy or copy to analyze.
-
Show Only Fallen Behind Copies: Filter only those needing attention.
-
To Be Copied Over Size (TB): Define a size threshold for a copy to be considered as fallen behind.
-
Job Over Days Old: Consider a copy as fallen behind if jobs older than N days not copied.
-
Copy Duration Threshold: Consider a copy as fallen behind if time taken to copy all the uncopied data is greater than this criteria.
Chart: Size To Copy By Storage Policy
The bar graph shows storage policy names. The Y-Axis shows the total data (in TB) yet to be copied. It offers a visual comparison across multiple storage policies.
Chart: Size To Copy By Storage Policy Copy
The chart is similar to the Size To Copy By Storage Policy chart but includes both policy and copy name. It is useful to differentiate individual copies under the same storage policy.
Summary Table

|---|---|
| Company | Business unit or organization name |
| Fallen Behind SP Count | Number of affected storage policies |
| Fallen Behind Copy Count | Number of individual copies behind |
| Total Size To Be Copied | Total pending data |
| Estimated Time To Copy | Time needed to finish copying |
