Adding a NetBackup for Sybase policy

This topic describes how to add a new backup policy for a database.

To add a new NetBackup for Sybase policy

  1. Log on to the master server as administrator (Windows) or root (UNIX).
  2. Start the NetBackup Administration Console.
  3. If your site has more than one master server, choose the one on which you want to add the policy.
  4. In the NetBackup Administration Console, select NetBackup Management > Policies. Then select Actions > New > Policy.
  5. In the Add a New Policy dialog box, in the Policy name box, type a unique name for the new policy.
  6. Click OK.
  7. In the Add New Policy dialog box, in the Policy type list, select Sybase.

    The Sybase policy type does not appear in the drop-down list unless your master server has a license for the database agent.

  8. Complete the entries on the Attributes tab.

  9. Add other policy information as follows:

    • Add schedules.

      See Configuring an application backup schedule.

      See Configuring automatic backup schedules.

    • Add clients.

    • Add scripts to the backup selections list.

  10. When you have added all the schedules, clients, and backup selections you need, click OK.
