What tabs are available on the SQL Safe Today view?

|---|---|
Progress | During an operation, the progress bar will denote the percentage of the operation completed. When the operation is complete, it will display a green bar labeled 100%. When an operation completed with errors, this column will display a red bar labeled Error. This column also indicates when the backup file has been deleted (groomed), and therefore is no longer available to be restored. |
