Problem conclusion
Prior to IBM Spectrum Protect Plus 10.1.15.2 and 10.1.16, the VM Backup Utilization report failed to sort the Backup Size column correct. Sorting did not account for the units of the backup size. Therefore, 1 TB would sort before 10 MB in ascending order, which would sort before 100 GB, since 1 < 10 < 100. Since IBM Spectrum Protect Plus 10.1.15.2 and 10.1.16, sorting now accounts for the units (i.e., 1 TB, then 100 GB, then 10 MB).
