About policy attributes
With a few exceptions, policy attributes for a MS-SQL-Server policy are managed in the same way as for most other policy types. Certain policy attributes vary according to your specific backup strategy and system configuration.
For more information on policy attributes, see the NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume I.
