Is it possible to increase the history time in the report section of NetBackup Administration Console?

The report you are running, as AmolZeroCool says, relates to what you actually see in activity monitor

As you want information that goes back more than three weeks I am guessing you want to know about the backups that have taken place in the past (rather than what is actually still running)

For all successful backups run the Client Backups Report or run a query in the Catalog Section.

If you do need to know about failed jobs as well then increase the number of days to retain the jobs in activity monitor (use both registry keys - to make sure you keep everything - this does still apply to V7.0.1)

Also look at the cleanup interval on the Master Server Host Properties to ensure any required logs are also retained long enough for any reports you may need.

You can also schedule reports using OpsCenter if you use it - that by default retains information for 60 days in the standard version

Hope this helps

Hi Marianne van den Berg, Mark_Solutions and AmolZeroCool,

Thank you all for your answers! - This was what I was looking for.

I am sorry that ony one answer can be marked as correct, when they all are.

Kind regards,
