As a provider, you can generate and export Recovery Point Objective (RPO) compliance reports, grouped on an organization level, listing any RPO violations of the existing protections for a specified period. These reports show whether, in the given period, any protection to the site and from it to on-premises sites meets its RPO.
For all organizations or for a selected organization, the RPO compliance reports include all existing protections for a specified period. View the currently generated report and optionally, export it in a couple of file formats. Optionally, on the reports page select showing only protections with RPO violations and only non-deleted protections.
For more information about RPO, see Recovery Point Objective - RPO.
Generating and Exporting RPO Compliance Reports
- Generate an RPO Compliance Report
-
To generate an RPO compliance report, in the left pane click Reports.
The RPO Compliance Reports page generates the RPO compliance report data for all organizations. When generating a report, specify the following report options that affect both the generated and the exported reports.
- In the top, enter the beginning and the end of the reporting period.
- Optionally, filter the organizations in the generated report by selecting it from the Organization drop-down menu:
- To include every organization in the report, select All.
- Alternatively, to filter the report by an organization, select one.
- Optionally, to filter out the protections owned by the system and not visible for the tenants from the generated report, with any specific organizations selected from the Organization drop-down menu, deselect Include system owned replications.
- Export an RPO Compliance Report
-
After generating the report with all the specified options above, you can export the generated report to a file in your browser that you can save. The exported report contains the same information, filtered as selected above.
- To export the report in an HTML file, click View HTML Report File.
- To export the report in a tab-delimited file, click View TSV Report File.
