Veritas NetBackup™ for Microsoft SQL Server Administrator's Guide

About the Applications utility

NetBackup displays the instances and availability groups that it discovers in the Applications > Microsoft SQL Server node of the NetBackup Administration Console, along with any instances you add manually. The properties for an instance, replica, or instance group indicate the name of any Intelligent Policies that protect those objects. Legacy policies (that use clients and batch files) are not reflected in the Applications utility. The Microsoft SQL Server node contains the following subnodes:

  • All Instances

    Contains all SQL Server instances that NetBackup discovers or that you manually added. Instances that belong to an availability group are also included in this list.

  • Instance Groups

    Contains any instance groups that you created. You can use instance groups to organize instances or replicas and to register all objects in the group with a single set of credentials.

  • Availability Groups

    Displays all SQL Server availability groups that NetBackup discovers.
