Backup

Using Backup Options

For split mirror and snapshot backups, the backup type is ignored (it is set to full). Data protection that is specified in the Schedule Backup dialog overrides protection settings anywhere else in the backup specification.

See Figure 5-27for a graphic scheme of how some of these options work. You can use backup templates to apply the same group of options to a number of backup specifications. Applying a template changes the backup specification according to the template. If you later change the template, you have to apply it again if you want the changes to take effect.

You can selectively apply schedule, device, and object options and the private exclusion list.

See also “Using Backup Templates” on page 216 for details about the backup templates.
