Monitoring Restore Bandwidth Usage

Monitor a computer's bandwidth usage to see how much bandwidth a restore job is using over time to deliver your data over the Internet.

To monitor restore bandwidth usage

  1. On the MyLiveVault Home page, the All Computers form lists all the computers on your company account. Click Backup/Restore in the Action column for the computer whose restore bandwidth usage you want to monitor.

  2. On the Computer Information form, click the Summary tab.

  3. In the Bandwidth and Latency section, in the Show list select the Bandwidth Usage chart you want to view. You can choose to view restore bandwidth usage charted over the past 24 hours (24 hour inbound bandwidth) or the past seven days (7 day inbound bandwidth).

    The chart graphs the bandwidth usage for the Network restore job where:

    • The Data transferred value indicates the amount of data transferred from the backup server to your computer.

    • The Time of usage value indicates when the data was transferred; for example, 3 hrs ago.

    Note: The inbound bandwidth charts show the amount of data transferred from the backup server to your Agent computer, primarily showing data being restored. However, you will also observe a minor amount of control data that is transferred during backup operations.

    The chart is updated with current data every 3 minutes.

Note: We recommend contacting Customer Service if you have questions about bandwidth usage.
