Pending Replication Operations pane

The Pending Replication Operations pane is a queue containing completed backups waiting to be replicated.

ClosedPending Replication Operations hierarchy

The information is arranged in the following way:

• Client folder - Backups to be replicated are grouped by client. Client folders display first in the hierarchy and are named in the following format:
SourceSystem : SourceClient : BackupInstance -> TargetSystem. For a description of source, client, instance, and target, see To view pending replication details. Click the arrow to the left of the folder to expand or collapse the view.
• Backups to replicate - Backups to be replicated for this client display beneath the Client Folder; the most recently created jobs appear higher in the list.

The following information displays for each pending operation:

• ID – The ID of the source backup.
• Status – An icon indicating that the backup is waiting to replicate.
• Client – The Client name. Collapse or expand the client folder, called
SourceSystem : Client : Instance/file-level -> TargetSystem, to show or hide pending operations for this client.
• Type – The type of backup that will be replicated. This includes the standard backup types, e.g., master, differential, bare metal, SQL full, etc. Additionally, you may see a backup type called System Metadata, which is a small backup of internal state information that is periodically transmitted from the source system to the target. This state is preserved to be used during a system restore, if ever needed.
• Date/Time – The time at which the backup started on the source system.
• Size (MB) – The size of the backup

See the following topics for details:

ClosedViewing backups in the pending queue

Items displayed in the pending queue are filtered by your selection in the Navigation pane:

ClosedTo remove a pending job from the queue
1 Each job in the Pending Replication Operations pane contains a trash can icon. Click the trash can icon in the desired row to launch the Remove Items from Replication Queue page.
2 Choose one of the following criteria:
• Remove Queue Items by their backup number to remove the selected job only.
• Remove Queue Items by their client to remove all pending replication jobs for this client.
3 If desired, check Add deleted items to the end of the queue.
• If the backup number criteria is selected, the pending job is moved to the end of the pending operations queue unless newer backups are present. If newer backups are queued for this client/backup type, the job is not added.
• If the all client items criteria is selected, any pending jobs are added to the end of the pending operations queue unless newer backups are present. If newer backups are queued for this client/backup type, the job is not added.

Important!   Jobs are only moved to the end of the queue if newer backups have not yet been queued. If a newer backup has been queued for this client and type (file-level or application), the backup is deleted.
