Adding a script to the backup selections list in the NetBackup Administration Console
The following procedure describes how to add a script to the backup selections list in the NetBackup Administration Console.
Note:
Be sure to specify the correct script name in the backup selections list to prevent an error or a wrong operation.
To add a script to the backup selections list in the NetBackup Administration Console
- Open the Policy dialog box.
To access the Policy dialog box, double-click the policy name in the Policies list in the NetBackup Administration Console.
- Click the Backup Selections tab.
- Click New.
- In the Script box, type the full path name of a script on the client.
For example:

Note:
Be aware of what may happen if an automatic schedule invokes a script that a user authored. NetBackup does not provide safeguards to prevent an automatic backup schedule from running a restore or a recovery script.
