Configuring the checkpoint restart option in a NetBackup for SAP policy

To restart backups from the point of failure, you must enable checkpoint in your NetBackup for SAP policy. To enable this feature, in the attributes for the policy, select Take Checkpoints Every. By default, this option is disabled. When this option is not enabled, a failed backup that is based on this policy is restarted from the beginning of the job.

When Take Checkpoints Every is enabled, by default the NetBackup for SAP agent takes a checkpoint every 15 minutes. You can configure this time interval for a different duration.
