Computer History pane options and Job History pane options

Use the History view on the DLO Administration Console to view information about the status of Desktop Agent jobs. History logs are generated by each desktop that runs the Desktop Agent. The History view includes a computer history and a job history for each desktop.

You can view history logs in either the DLO Administration Console or the Desktop Agent Console. You can filter history logs so that old or less important logs do not appear, or so that only backup or restore job logs appear.

By default, the history logs are updated when a job runs and an hour has passed since the last update. However, if the job’s status changes, the history log is updated immediately to reflect the new status.

The History view provides the following summary information:
