NetVault 11.4.5 - CLI Reference Guide

The nvreport utility allows you to generate and view canned reports from the command-line interface. These reports provide information about the backup and restore jobs, storage devices, clients, media utilization, and other aspects of NetVault Backup.

To access help for nvreport, type:

nvreport -help

The nvreport utility uses “template” files to output the report data. The template files determine the content, layout, and format of the report. The report templates are located in the <NetVault Backup home>\reports\ templates directory.

There are two methods to specify a template file to generate a report:

•

Using the actual filename: You can use the “-templatefile” option to specify the actual template file that you want to use. With this option, you must provide the full file path for the template file.

•

Using the “nice name”: Each template file has an alternate name value known as its “nice name.” This name is used for the template file in the NetVault WebUI. Specify this “Nice Name” with the “‑templatename” option.

To access help for the template files, type:

nvreport -help templatename

Syntax

nvreport -server <server name> -class <class name> -templatename <template name>

nvreport -server <server name> -class <class name> -templatefile <full file path>

Table 87. nvreport

Specifies the name of the NetVault Backup Server that administers the job.

This option is required when a remote server administers the job. It can be omitted when a local server administers the job. The server name is case‑sensitive.

-class

Specifies the report class. Class names are case-insensitive.

The main purpose of a class is to organize the individual report components or template files into groups. These template files are used to generate the reports.

When a class name is specified with the -class option, the default template file associated with the class is used to run a report.

Example:

nvreport -class Clients

For more information about the available report classes, see Report classes

-templatename

Specifies the “nice name” of the template file.

Example:

nvreport -templatename “Client Machines - cli default template”

Note the following:

•

If the “nice name” contains any spaces, enclose the variable in quotation marks (“ ”).

•

To locate the “nice name” for a template file, open the file in a text editor and note the string in the “%NICENAME” line

For more information, see Plain text template files.

-templatefile

Specifies the name of the template file. You must specify the full file path with this option.

Example:

nvreport -templatefile C:\NetVaulBackup\reports\templates\logsclidefault

Note the following:

•

The report templates are located in the <NetVault Backup home>\reports\ templates directory.

•

If the file path contains any spaces, enclose the variable in quotation marks

For more information, see Plain text template files.
