Adding databases to a policy
This topic describes how to add databases to a policy when you choose the option. You can also add instances to the same policy.
See Adding instances to a policy.
To add databases to a policy
- On the Instances and Databases tab, click Protect instances.
- Click New.
All instances that you registered are displayed.
- In the left pane, expand the Databases node and select the instance that contains the databases that you want to protect.
- In the right pane, select the check box next to each database that you want to add to the list.
When you select individual databases, you must manually add any new databases in your environment to a policy. In this case, NetBackup does not dynamically create a list of databases at run-time.
For databases that are hosted on a SQL Server cluster, the Host Name represents the virtual name of the SQL Server. (See the following figure.)
- Click OK.
The objects you select in the backup selections list apply only to the instances or databases that you add to the list on this tab.
