Statistics View

Top Previous Next

You can activate Statistics view by:

·	pressing the Statistics button from the toolbar

·	selecting from the View menu the Statistics menu item

·	pressing the F3 keyboard shortcut

This view provides statistical information about the last backup performed and calculates statistics about the next backup, based on the current backup job configuration.

Information provided for incremental and differential backups:

Last full backup on

The date and time when the last full backup was executed. Note that the first backup is always a full backup, even if the backup type is set to incremental or differential.

Last full backup size

Shows the size of the last full backup (compressed) / size of all files present in backup (uncompressed) / compression percentage.

For example 10 MB/30 MB/33% means that the size of the last full backup was 10 MB, the uncompressed size of the files backed up was 30 MB and the compression ratio was 33%.

Last backup on

Date and time of the last backup

Last backup size

Shows the size of the last backup (compressed) / size of all files present in backup (uncompressed) / compression percentage

For mirror backups the first four labels are replaced by:

Mirror backup on

Date and time when the last mirror backup was executed

Mirror backup size

Shows the size of the last mirror backup

Total size of backup

Total size of the backup takes into consideration all backup increments, ".bkc" file and any folders that might have been created. It shows the total size after compression / without compression / compression percentage For mirror backup the compressed values are not shown, because there is no compression.

Number of backups

Number of times the backup job was executed

Other information provided for incremental, differential and mirror backups:

Last backup status

Displays the following information:

·	Last backup was successful when everything went OK

·	Last backup failed when the backup was aborted due to an error

·	Last backup had <X> warnings when the backup was done, but <X> files could not be backed up

·	Last backup was canceled when the user canceled the backup execution

Files in backup

Shows the number of files in the backup. The number between the brackets is for the files added at the last backup. For full backup the number of files added to the last backup will be always the same with the total number of files. The same for mirror backup without the Fast mirror option activated.

Next scheduled backup

Date and time when the backup is scheduled to be executed again

Statistics for next backup:

The Calculate Statistics for Next Backup (Ctrl+F5) button will start counting the new, modified, unchanged and excluded files since last backup execution. The counters will be shown in the labels below, divided into two sections: Files to backup containing the counters for the files that will be added to the next backup, and Changes since last backup containing the counters for the files changed since the last backup. For a large number of files, counting can be time consuming. If you want to stop the counting process press the Cancel button from the toolbar. Calculate Statistics for Next Backup (Ctrl+F5) uses the catalog file (".bkc"). If this catalog is on a CD/DVD and you enter a previous backup version, the counters will be different. Files to backup counters are calculated depending on the backup job settings: backup type, <Clear backup> action etc. Changes since last backup counters are always the same no matter the backup job settings.

Files to backup

For full and differential backup types these counters are calculated based on the changes since the last full backup. For the incremental the counts are based on the changes since the last backup (differential, full or incremental).

New files

The number of new files that will be added to backup. For mirror backup (with the Fast mirror option unchecked), the new files counter equals the total number of files.

Modified files

Shows the number of modified files to be added to backup. For mirror backup (with the "Fast mirror" option unchecked), this number will always be 0.

Unchanged files

Shows the number of unchanged files to be added to backup. For differential, incremental and mirror backup with Fast mirror option unchecked, this number will always be 0.

Excluded files

Shows the number of excluded files, which will be removed from the backup.

Changes since last backup

counts the changes since the last backup, regardless of the backup settings

New files

Shows the number of new files since last backup.

Modified files

Shows the number of modified files since last backup.

Unchanged files

Shows the number of unchanged files since last backup.

Excluded files

Shows the number of excluded files. A file gets excluded because of the changes in file filter or because it was deleted or moved from the source files.

Total files to backup

Shows the total number of files that will be added to backup next time. This should be the sum of the new, modified and unchanged file counters.

Total file size (uncompressed) to backup

Shows the sum of all file sizes to be included in the backup next time it is executed.

Free disk space on destination

Shows the available free disk space on the destination drive.
