Veritas NetBackup™ for SAP Administrator's Guide

policy <policy_name>

This parameter specifies the name of an SAP policy that is defined in NetBackup. The SAP policy must have an Application Backup schedule defined in order for the NetBackup for SAP backint interface to work. The following is an example entry:

policy sap_nb

If the NetBackup for SAP backint interface finds the $SAP_POLICY (%SAP_POLICY%) environment variable, the $SAP_POLICY environment variable value overrides the policy parameter value. If the policy parameter is not specified, and there is no environment variable, then the policy parameter value defaults to the specification for the BPBACKUP_POLICY option in the NetBackup bp.conf file or the NetBackup registry. By default, if BPBACKUP_POLICY is not specified in any bp.conf file or in the NetBackup registry, NetBackup uses the first active SAP policy it finds for the client with an Application Backup schedule.
