NetBackup™ for Microsoft SQL Server Administrator's Guide

Protecting SQL Server availibility groups with batch file-based policies

You can use batch file-based policies to protect an availability group environment in the following ways:

  • With a policy that protects the preferred replica.

  • With a policy that protects a specific node in the availability group.

  • If an availability group crosses multiple NetBackup domains, you can use Auto Image Replication (A.I.R.) to replicate the backup to the other NetBackup domains.

    See Protect a SQL Server availability group that crosses NetBackup domains with a policy.

  • NetBackup supports backups of availability groups in multi-NIC environments. For more information, see the following topic:

    See Configuration and requirements for SQL Server backups with multiple NICs.
