Hello,
You may benefit from having 3rd party software that allows SLA's, Bocada 
may be tek tools, once you separate out the data by perhaps departments, 
pools etc and have good idea as to what the size of the backups per 
clients are and combine them with your retention policy, you could come up 
with a scheme that will let you do a charge back.

[Networker] reporting volumes on retention






Hi All, 

I need to cross charge for the amount of data held on retention at a per 
GB rate. What I don't know, is to how to work out how much data we have on 
retention? Hopefully, I don't need to go through the whole index - as some 
of it is on tape itself, and it would probably take forever to do - and I 
need to do it every month.

Any ideas?

Thx
