## Notes

- **Privileges**: Some backup information requires system privileges. Use `--admin` flag for full access to all backup details.
- **Time Range**: The default look-back period is 7 days. Use `--days` to adjust (e.g., `--days 30` for 30 days).
- **Filtering**: You can combine multiple filters like `--backupType complete --status successful` to narrow results.

## Examples

### Basic Usage - Show recent backups (last 7 days)

```bash
hana-cli backupStatus
```

Displays backup status for the last 7 days

### View backups from last 30 days

```bash
hana-cli backupStatus --days 30
```

Extends the look-back period to 30 days

### Filter by backup type

```bash
hana-cli backupStatus --backupType complete --limit 10
```

Shows only complete backups, limited to 10 results

### Filter by status

```bash
hana-cli backupStatus --status successful
```

Shows only successful backups

### View with admin privileges

```bash
hana-cli backupStatus --admin
```

Connects with admin user (default-env-admin.json) for full access to backup information (recommended for viewing all backup details and progress)

### Show only catalog (skip configuration)

```bash
hana-cli backupStatus --catalogOnly
```

Displays backup catalog without configuration information
