Logical Capacity

This tab displays different views of the current logical capacity usage for an individual library or
the entire VLS system. Logical capacity is the amount of data the backup application wrote, while
the physical capacity is the amount of data actually stored on the disk.

Select the Show Details link in the first section to display the breakdown of the logical and physical
capacity and the deduplication ratio. To export the deduplication CSV data, enter the number of
days to include in the report and select Export. (See

Exporting CSV Data (page 145)

for more

information.)

To change the information displayed in the graphs:
1.

Select the date range to include in the report:

Start date — the date you want as the starting point for stepping back into the past by
some number of days to establish a particular date range. This is effectively the end date
of the date range.

Hour of the day — the hour of the day, in 24 hour time, to use in conjunction with the
Start date.

Going back — the number of days to step back from the selected start date to establish
a date range.

For example, if you select June 20 at 10 going back 3 days, the graph will include data from
June 17 at 10:00 a.m. to June 20th at 10:00 a.m.

NOTE:

The greater the number of days included in the date range, the fewer the data points

for each day will display in the graphs. For example, for two days of data the graphs will
show one data point for every two hours, while for seven days of data the graphs will show
one data point for every seven hours.

In some cases, there are more data points than the graphs can display. You must select how
the system chooses which data point to use for each time period displayed. For example, if
