Adding instance groups to a backup policy
This topic describes how to add instance groups to a SQL Server Intelligent Policy. You cannot mix instances and instance groups. For example, if you create a policy with instance groups and later select the option, the instance groups are deleted from the policy.
To add instance groups to a SQL Server Intelligent policy
- Open the policy you want to edit or create a new policy.
- On the Instances and Databases tab, click Protect instance groups.
- Click New.
The Select Instance Group dialog box displays all instance groups that you created in the Applications utility.
- Select the instance group(s) you want to add and click OK.
The list of instance groups that is displayed here controls the instances you can browse and select from when you create the backup selections list.
To see a list of all the instances in the group, select the instance group and click Preview Instances.
