Users can clearly view the following information to check on the health of the backup

Protection Level

Genie Timeline informs users of the status of the backup with the new protection level feature. This feature enables users to keep track of the process of their backup by showing the percentage of protected files. 100% means that all files are protected, there is nothing to backup, ;and 0% denotes that there are no files protected. When the protection level drops under 60%, it will show as a warning that the protection level is low. The Protection level decreases if:

  • New files were added to backup ;and they are still not backed up.
  • Significant file changes occurred between backups.
  • The backup is not working because Genie Timeline is paused, backup drive is inaccessible, or insufficient free space.
