Remove protection from SQL Server assets
You can unsubscribe databases, instances, or availability groups from a protection plan. When the asset is unsubscribed, backups are no longer performed.
Note:
When you unsubscribe an asset from a protection plan, there is a possibility that the asset displays in the web UI. This situation can happen when an asset is subscribed to a protection plan and a backup runs for that asset. Then the asset is unsubscribed from the protection plan while it has a valid backup image. The web UI displays , but there may or may not be an active policy protecting the asset.
