Deactivating or deleting a policy
Deactivating a policy has the following implications:
You cannot perform manual backups for deactivated policies.
Scheduled backups in the deactivated policies are not triggered.
Operations such as edit, copy, and delete works normally.
Copying the deactivated policy creates a new policy in deactivated state.
When you delete a policy, the scheduled backups which were configured in that policy, are not conducted.
To deactivate or delete a policy:
- On the left, click Policies. All the policies that you have privilege to view, are displayed in the Policies tab.
- Click the ellipsis menu (three dots), in the row of the policy that you want to copy. Click Deactivate or Delete as required.
Alternatively, select the option in the row of the policy, click Deactivate or Delete as required, at the top of the table.
The policies get deactivated immediately. To reactivate the policy again, click the ellipsis menu (three dots), in the row of the deactivated policy and click Activate.
- If you delete a policy, click Delete in the confirmation box.
