Backup methods supported in the NetBackup web UI

The NetBackup web UI offers the following methods to protect your data:

  • Policies. Policies protect data on clients. Some agents also have an intelligent policy that protects assets spread over multiple clients.

  • Protection plans. Protection plans protect assets. For example, databases or virtual machines. Workload administrators are granted access to a protection plans through the available default RBAC roles. Then they can subscribe the assets to a plan.

Protection plans and intelligent policies work with asset management to automatically discover assets in the NetBackup environment.
