Hi, i’m looking to extract file level details on every job. I’ve used the File Level Anaytics reports to generate reports for all File System jobs. These reports doesn’t fetch anything for db/vsa jobs as the app type won’t match. I’ve tried the `getbackuplist` which is similar to FLA reports. We need the extract of `Files` backed up in a job (even if it is .vmdk / .mdf,.ldf, .dbf etc) to parse this information in our own db for quick searchability.

Is there any workaround to get that from index, CS db, content index or any alternative to FLA reports for all data types. May be something similar to bpflist (in netbackup) - https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/doc/15263389-133604923-0/v93410403-133604923

Note : index and data resides on tapes, having this info would be helpful to locally (1) search file locally in own db, (2) check job ID & required tapes and (3) then recall/retreive the tape.

Hi @Fizzy ,

Kindly download and import the below report to get the subclient content details.

How to import the report

Thanks @Pradeep - I have this report which provides the current config/SubclientContent but not the content of the backup jobs in the past (pulled based on jobs or client from indexing, reporting etc).

What i’m after is something similar or less informative than FLA report, need details for db, vsa files etc…

Example FLA Report :

 

--

example for db or vmdk basic info about file_name.dbx, tablespace and file size should be enough to extract.

 


Hi @Fizzy 

You can use job summary report on the Java console and choose subclient content to display the backup information.

@Pradeep thanks for your inputs. I was able to get some files listed for DBs using the Job Summary report. No options for NDMP backups to extract contents as FLA works only with WFS and LinuxFS.

The Job Summary report does help for listing fewer files contents like db and vmdk. Just that few agents won’t give much insights unless we browse them manually. It would have been great if we just restore index (db) on media agents manually and browse without requesting the index tape (unless we need to restore files)
