Managing application instances from Flex Appliance and NetBackup
After you have created your instances, the instance management is divided between Flex Appliance and NetBackup, depending on the type of operation. In general, use Flex Appliance for any tasks that are related to the appliance or the application files. Use NetBackup for any tasks that are related to your backups.
