Policy Attributes tab

Use the policy Attributes tab to configure backup settings when you add a new policy or change an existing policy. When you create a policy, you give the policy a name and select a policy type. The policy type you select typically depends on the type of client you want to back up. The number of policy types available varies depending on which NetBackup options are installed. Each policy type has a unique combination of attributes. Not all attributes apply to every policy type. When you select a policy type, the attributes that apply to that policy type are active. The unavailable attributes are grayed out.
