Subscribe an asset or an asset group to a protection plan
You can subscribe a single asset or a group of assets to a protection plan. An asset or a group of assets can be subscribed to multiple protection plans. Before you can subscribe assets to a protection plan, you must create a protection plan.
NetBackup supports homogenous cloud asset subscriptions. While subscribing an asset to a protection plan, the cloud provider of the asset must be the same as the cloud provider defined in the protection plan.
