Managing policies

About policies

A policy can be used to submit one or more jobs that target one or more similar clients.

You can use a policy to administer backup strategies such as the following:

The following plug-ins support policy-based backups:

NetVault Backup Plug-in for Consolidation
NetVault Backup Plug-in for Databases (plug-in for backing up the NetVault Database)

MSP administrator and tenant administrator can create and submit backup policies from the Manage Policies page, and monitor the policy jobs from the Job Status page. MSP administrator and tenant administrator cannot view each others policies.
