Storage Trends report

This FSA Reporting report provides information on storage growth trends for FSA archiving targets on the chosen file server. You can generate a report showing trends on a weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly basis.

Note:

The SQL Server Agent service must be running for this report to include any data.

The report shows trends in:

Active disk storage size (storage on the file server)
Enterprise Vault archive storage size

You can use the trend data from these reports to estimate when the storage capacity is likely to be exceeded both on the file server and within the vault store.

If you have configured FSA Reporting to scan all physical drives of a file server, the report includes data for the physical drives.

If Enterprise Vault is not archiving a volume, the report includes only the trending information for the file server's disk storage.
