Q:
How do I see what was backed up last night? How can I tell if everyone has been backed up by the Backup Server?
 
A:
To view files backed up during the most recent backup, choose Reports in the Retrospect Directory and click Contents. Select the appropriate backup set from the top list in the contents report window, select one or more sessions from the bottom list, and click Browse. A Browser appears, listing the files in the order they were backed up.

The operations log shows by date which volumes were backed up, how much data was copied, and whether the backup completed successfully. To view the log, click Log from the Retrospect Directory's Reports tab. The log also lists any errors which occurred.

The Backup Report shows a summary of the backup operations for each volume. To view the report, click Report from the Retrospect Directory's Reports tab.

To see all files on a particular volume at the time of its most recent backup, set up an immediate restore. Select the desired backup set and volume Snapshot. From the summary window, click Files Chosen to get a Browser showing the volume.
