Copying a set

You can use the clone method to create a set from an existing set. After the set is cloned, you can change the data selections or various options stored in the set.

NetVault lets you clone a set when creating or modifying a job. You can also use the Edit option on the Manage Sets page to perform this task.

To clone a set when creating a job: Access the Create Backup Job or Create Restore Job page, and click the Create New button corresponding to the type of set that you want to create.
To clone a set when editing a job: Access the Edit Backup Job or Edit Restore Job page, and click the Create New button corresponding to the type of set that you want to create.
To clone a set from the Manage Sets page: In the Navigation pane, click Manage Sets. In the Set Type list, select the type of set that you want to modify. In the list of available sets, select a set, and click Edit.

If a set is no longer required, you can remove it from the NetVault Database. You cannot delete a set if it is in use by an active job or a scheduled job.

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 Plug-in for FileSystem
NetVault Plug-in for Consolidation
NetVault Plug-in for Data Copy
NetVault Plug-in for Databases (plug-in for backing up the NetVault Database)
NetVault Plug-in for SQL Server
NetVault Plug-in for PostgreSQL
NetVault Plug-in for Exchange

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.
