Copying a deployment policy to create a new deployment policy

Use the Copy to New option to save time creating policies. This option is especially useful for the policies that contain many of the same policy attributes, schedules, or hosts selections.

To copy a policy to create a new one

  1. In the NetBackup Administration Console, in the left pane, select Deployment Management > Deployment Policies.
  2. In the middle pane, select the policy to copy.
  3. On the Edit menu, click Copy to New.
  4. In the Copy a Deployment Policy dialog box, enter the name of the policy that you want to copy. You can indicate a policy other than the one that is selected.
  5. Enter the name for the new policy.
  6. Click OK. The only difference between the new policy and the copied policy is the name.

    The Change Deployment Policy dialog box is displayed. Make the required changes and click OK to save the changes or click Cancel to discard the changes.
