ICON Associated to VEEAM backup job


Hi, 

I am backing up VM’s from single ESXI server. At present I have 2 VM and backup runs daily. I notice one VM backup has RED Flag/Play sign.

What does it mean, anything to be worried of ? 

Where can I get read all of the ICON details ? 

 

Thank you.

hi @dwijadas 

The red flag on the job means, you have activated „high priority“ in the Job options.

it runs before all others, when all backup jobs will be started at the same time.

Are these regular backup jobs or are they some other type of job?  The icon would be nothing to worry about since the status of the job shows successful.  I believe that the help site has some icons on it but not sure about these ones.

Thank you @Mildur & @marcofabbri  for your answer.

Now I can peacefully accept the RED flag !

Veeam Team, if you are listening, I recommend changing the flag from red to green. :joy:

Remember that here you can see how the priority works on Veeam.
