To add databases to a policy
- In the policy, select on the Instances and databases tab.
- Select Protect instances and databases.
- Select Add.
All instances that you registered are displayed.
- In the left pane, expand the Databases node and select the instance that contains the databases that you want to protect.
- In the right pane, select the check box next to each database that you want to add to the list.
When you select individual databases, you must manually add any new databases in your environment to a policy. In this case, NetBackup does not dynamically create a list of databases at run-time.
For the databases that are hosted on a SQL Server cluster, the Host name represents the virtual name of the SQL Server.
- Select the Select button.
The objects you select in the backup selections list apply only to the instances or databases that you add to the list on this tab.
