A backup set rebuild can only be started when there is not backup job running (on the corresponding backup set) and vice versa.

The time taken to complete a rebuild depends on a number of factors such as the number of files / folders in the backup set(s), the number of backup sets, the hardware specifications of your AhsayCBS server such as the disk I/O and CPU performance, and if there are other resource intensive jobs running.

To check the progress of a backup set rebuild, go to Monitoring > Backup / Restore Logs.

AhsayCBS Web Console

Click Activities Log, when the rebuild job is completed the following log entry can be found.
