With the Commvault Recall Log Monitoring solution, you can monitor the CommCell environment for recall patterns and recall auditing, and to reassess archiving rules for recall optimization. For example, if you notice that a file is being recalled too frequently, you can change the archiving rules for the file so that that the file is not stubbed immediately.
You can search and analyze file recall log data by using the Log Monitoring application available from the Web Console. In the application, dashboards provide graphical representations of the consolidated log activity in your environment. On the dashboards, log activity is arranged on a single screen so that you can monitor it at a glance. You can modify the default dashboard and you can create your own dashboards.
Recall Log Monitoring is fully integrated with Commvault Build Your Own Reports for importing data sources into the Report Builder dashboard and creating visualizations of your data.
