There's another problem with "Images on Media" - it doesn't
show to what Backup Job an Image belongs. Sure enough,
it shows the "Backup ID" - but what do I do with this "Backup
ID" in the GUI? In the activity monitor, only a Job ID is shown.

I knew I forgot something yesterday evening, when I first
replied to your mail :)

Yes, it does. But it lacks the "date" and/or Backup Job
ID. And it would also be nice, if there were a way to
collapse all the different fragments into just one fragment.

Anyone familiar with HP OmniBack/DataProtectorManager
around here? If I remember correctly, DPM easily presents
the information I'm looking for, doesn't it? But it may very
well be, that memory is failing me...
