Compare savesets with a baseline list

Hi every one , for auditing process I need to check if the completed savesets are the same that are configured on the clients.

Actually I use MMINFO(is for completed savesets) and powershell script to compare the weekly/monthly backups but I need to compare with a client’s base line. For example: On client2 the saveset 3 fails  for any reason on montly backup  and with mminfo  got a report without that saveset.

So the big question is How do i get this baseline list ?

Thanks in advance

What you call the baseline is actually nothing but the configured save set list for the client. Unfortunately, this list is only true if you have a specific save set list.

However, if you use an alias like 'All' then you do not really know what the save set list will result in due to the internal VSS and other backups. Consequently, differences will be obvious.

Let me suggest that you look at full backups only and use mminfo to compare the save set lists for 2 consecutive months.

Then use Powershell to sort the entries of both files and compare the results to find possible differences.

Thanks @bingo.1, Well I think that is all for that i was trying to do,  may be in  future version of NW. 

I actually takes the mminfo from weekly #n backup (as baseline) and weekly #n+1 and with powershell script  compare the files looking for differences. If I find an missing entrie  i use nrclone.
