How do I check I am not exceeding data consumed on capacity license
Capacity license is measured on front side data consumed so it is necessary to run the “Front Side Data” report.
Using the Run&View button, leave the default filter options if your full backups run on a monthly, bi-weekly, weekly schedule.
If the full backups are scheduled to run more than 1 month apart, then change the option “Backup system” to be “ >=" "NOW-XXDA” where XX is days between full backups.
Once the report completes, to display totals, select the settings options on the top table Component 'Front Side Data' right hand side .
Then select the drop down menu for Aggregate, and select total and apply.
Now at bottom of the table Component 'Front Side Data' you can see the total front side data.
This will show the front side data consumed and you can then compare with your license value to verify if this license value is being exceeded.
