About the Offsite Inventory report

The Offsite Inventory (or Full Inventory List for Vault) report includes the information in the Vault Inventory report and also includes any volumes that were requested back from the offsite vault vendor (that is, inbound media in transit). Usually, this report is not generated on a daily basis. Rather, the Inventory List for Vault report is sent to the vault vendor to perform verification.

If you use a scratch pool, this report may include volumes from other profiles or vaults that have expired and moved back into the scratch pool even if the report is for a specific Vault profile or session.
