Report subscriptions for administrators

If you are a cloud-derived administrator or a data protection officer, you can configure Druva to send reports of activities to your email. If you are a group-derived administrator, you can configure Druva to send reports of activities related to the administrative groups that you manage to your email. Cloud-derived administrators and data protection officers can configure report subscriptions for other non-administrators for all organizations. Reports display information about Druva activities. Reports contain information about any errors or unsuccessful backups and restores. Reports are sent out to administrators on a scheduled basis for the servers that they manage.

This topic includes the following sections:

  • Admin Audit Trails: Logs critical changes performed by all administrators with details of each activity.
  • Credit Consumption: Provides consolidated view of monthly credit consumption and credit savings, balance, and term details.
