Hi,<br />
<br />
We're updating our backup solition at the moment. As part of this process I have to tedious job of surveying the ntbackup jobs on our servers and detailing the following information on each:<br />
1. the scope of the backup job, what is being backed up<br />
2. Start time of job<br />
3. End time of last job<br />
4. Location job is running to<br />
5. Size of backup file<br />
<br />
We have approx 200 servers spread over 30 different locations. Is there a way or tool for scanning or somehow automating this process instead of having to RDP to each server?<br />
<br />
Thanks a million in advance.<br />

Looking for a tool to scan for ntbackup jobs

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.
