Generating an Online File Summary Report
Use the Online File Summary tool to scan the backup sets created by your DS-Client. It generates a list of the files on the DS-System online vault. This is useful for identifying duplicate files that are being backed up. You can reduce backup traffic and online storage with this information.
1. Click Reports > Online File Summary.
For each row, a file is only counted once (even if there are multiple generations of that file).
2. Click Find.
The process scans all the backup files (based on the Filter parameters) on DS-System.
3. Select a line in the Summary, and click Details.
The Details screen appears.
Each line represents a unique file. If more than one copy exists, the duplication amount is indicated in that column.
4. Select a file from the list and click Show Duplicates.
The location of each duplicate file is shown in this screen.
5. Click Close when you are finished.
