
Comments – Backup plan comments. For a centralized backup plan, the value in this column is
the same as in the Comments column for the corresponding backup policy.

ManagedEntityType – The type of the machine whose identifier is given in the ManagedEntityID
column:

PHYSICAL MACHINE – The machine is a physical machine.

VIRTUAL MACHINE – The machine is a virtual machine.

OwnerUID – The unique identifier of the user who owns the backup plan

ID – The unique identifier of the backup plan
 PolicyID – For a centralized backup plan: the unique identifier of the backup policy on which the
backup plan is based.
Note: For a local backup plan, this column identifies an equivalent of the backup policy, which uniquely
corresponds to the backup plan. Through this column, the BackupPlans view is linked with the
TaskActivities view (p. 21)—see the PolicyID column in that view.
 ManagedEntityID – The unique identifier of the physical machine on which the backup plan exists

HostID – The unique identifier of the agent that runs the backup plan's tasks

5.5 Archives and backups

5.5.1 Description

The ArchivesAndBackups view contains the list of all backups in all archives from all the managed
vaults. It is possible to track the relationship of an archive to the managed vault.
Each entry in the view corresponds to a backup. Archive-specific columns, such as ArchiveType or
NumberOfFullBackups, contain information about the archive in which the backup is contained; their
content is the same for all backups in the archive.
Backups of virtual and physical machines are combined in this view. To differentiate them, you should
join this view with the Machines view and filter the result by the machine type.

5.5.2 Query samples


The following query returns the list of all full backups that are bigger than 10 GB:
SELECT * FROM ArchivesAndBackups WHERE
BackupDataSize > 10 * 1024 * 1024 * CAST(1024 AS BIGINT) AND
BackupType = 'FULL'
Note: The CAST function is used here because the value of 10 GB falls outside the INT type domain.
 The following query returns the list of all archives that were created more than a year ago but do
not contain any backups created within the past month:
SELECT * FROM ArchivesAndBackups A WHERE
DATEDIFF(yy, ArchiveCreationTime, GETUTCDATE()) > 1 AND
NOT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM ArchivesAndBackups WHERE DATEDIFF(mm,
BackupCreationTime, GETUTCDATE()) <= 1 AND ArchiveID = A.ArchiveID)
