Backup Status Monitoring in VDP 6.0

I was using VDP 5.5. It can show the sequence of VM backup

1. Create Snapshot

2. Reconfigure virtual machine (on VDP to add the VM disk)

3. Show message "Backing up Disk: 1/1 (F)" or "Backing up Disk: 1/2 (I)", with progress bar

4. Reconfigure virtual machine (on VDP to remove the VM disk)

5. Remove Snapshot

But in VDP 6.0, I found that there is no "Backing up Disk" message, and I do not know what VM is VDP backing up. Is it by design, or can it display more message to let me know the progress?

If you want to know more detail about what's going on you can login to the console of the VDP appliance and run "mccli activity show"
