Where can I see detailed history for Cloud Sync and Snapshot tasks?

TrueNAS General
1

Hi,

I am running TrueNAS SCALE and using both Cloud Sync tasks (to Backblaze B2) and Periodic Snapshot Tasks. While everything appears to run successfully, I find it difficult to get a clear overview of what has actually happened historically and what each job has done in detail.

For Cloud Sync I can see cloudsync.sync entries in the Jobs view, but they only show a generic job name, start time, finish time, and SUCCESS/FAILED status. They do not clearly indicate which Cloud Sync task the job belongs to, which dataset was involved, or which destination (for example a specific Backblaze B2 bucket). To see more details I have to expand the job and inspect the log excerpt, but even there it is difficult to understand the full history of what has happened over time.

For example, my initial upload to Backblaze took a very long time and should have transferred around 1 TB of data. However, I cannot find any clear historical entry showing that large transfer. The Jobs view only shows recent runs where little or nothing was transferred.

Periodic Snapshot Tasks seem even more limited in terms of visibility. The UI shows that the task is “FINISHED”, along with the last run time and next run time, but I cannot find any detailed execution history or logs showing when snapshots were created, whether any snapshot runs failed, or what actually happened during execution.

My questions are:

  1. What is the recommended way in TrueNAS SCALE to view a clear historical overview of Cloud Sync activity?

  2. How can I see which specific Cloud Sync task corresponds to each cloudsync.sync job in the Jobs view?

  3. Where can I confirm that the initial full upload to Backblaze completed successfully (for example showing the large data transfer that should have happened)?

  4. Where can I view execution history or logs for Periodic Snapshot Tasks?

  5. Is there a recommended monitoring or logging approach for TrueNAS backups and snapshots if the UI itself does not provide a full historical overview?

I am mainly looking for a reliable way to understand both the historical activity and the detailed results of backup and snapshot operations, not just whether a job ended with SUCCESS.
