NetVault Backup Policy Management

A NetVault Backup Job Policy can be used to submit one or more jobs that target one or more similar clients.

If you intend to use NetVault Backup Job Policy across your organization's SQL Server clients, Quest strongly recommends that you use, whenever possible, a generic name for the SQL Server Instances deployed in different SQL Servers. Do not use a name associated with the machine on which the instance resides, or a name that is unique.

Jobs generated for instances with unique names, in general, cannot be ported to other SQL Server clients in your organization. Using generic instance names improves portability and policy management across all affected clients. In this way, you can create NetVault Backup Job Policies that can be applied to the different SQL Server clients in your organization.

For more information, see the Managing Policies in the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.

Prerequisites for a standalone deployment

Before installing Plug‑in for SQL Server, check that the following software is installed and configured on the machine that is to host SQL Server:

•
NetVault Backup Server and Client software: At a minimum, the Client version of NetVault Backup software must be installed on the machine configured as the SQL Server.
•
SQL Server software: The machine must be running a supported version of SQL Server. For a list of supported versions, see the Quest NetVault Backup Compatibility Guide, which is available at https://support.quest.com/technical-documents.
•
SQL Server VSS Writer Services: If you want to implement a VSS backup strategy for SQL Server databases on Windows Servers, the SQL Server VSS Writer service must be running. The SQL Server VSS Writer is automatically installed. However, the service is not set to start automatically. To enable VSS backups, use the Windows Services utility. Quest recommends that you set the Startup Type for this service to Automatic.
