Quest Backup Reporter

Close, Re-open, and Disable Violations

To Close Violations

Quest Backup Report allows you to mark a violation as Closed after you address the issue. You must manually close violations. The Quest Backup Reporter never automatically closes a violation.

  1. Select the Violations tab.
  2. Right-click a violation and select Close.

    Notes:

    • If you close a violation by mistake, you can manually re-open the violation. 
    • Quest Backup Reporter occasionally re-opens a violation if the root cause of a violation re-occurs. For example, you have a retention policy requiring three copies of your backups, but only two copies are generated. Quest Backup Reporter opens a violation. In response, you create an additional backup and close the violation since it no longer applies. If the retention policy is violated in the future, Quest Backup Reporter re-opens the violation.

To Re-Open Violations

You can manually re-open violations you close by mistake.

» Select Violation | Reopen Violations in the menu.

To Disable Violations

  1. Select Violation |Violation Settings in the menu.
  2. Click the rule you want to disable.
  3. Select Yes in the Disabled field.
