NetBackup 4.5 for UNIX Lesson 5 Creating Backup Policies:Attributes, Clients and Files Course Overview Objectives After completing this lesson, you will be able to: Describe backup policies. Create backup policies. Modify policy attributes. Change file settings for a policy. Change client settings for a policy. Troubleshoot common backup policy issues. NetBackup Policies A policy is a template for the backup of a single client or a group of clients with common attributes and a common file list. Parts of a Policy Definition: Attributes Client list File list Schedules Policies determine: What – Backup files and data sets Who – Backup clients How – Backup behavior Where – Backup storage location When – Backup time and type Creating Policies—Using the Create a Backup Policy Wizard Creating Policies—Without Using the Create a Backup Policy Wizard Viewing and ChangingPolicy Details Changing Policy Attributes Follow NFS: UNIX Cross Mount Points/Locally Attached Drives True Image Restore True Image Restore:Move Detection TIR without Move Detection Modification time (mtime) used to determine which files to back up. Moved, renamed, or newly installed files or directories whose mtime has not been changed are not be backed up in an incremental backup. TIR with Move Detection Pathname and inode of files as well as mtime used to determine which files to back up. Multiple Data Streams Segments back up in multiple streams from a single client. This feature can provide various benefits depending on overall configuration, such as: Auto-discovery of disks and partitions Independent data streams If one data stream fails, the other data streams are not affected. Increased backup speed A reduction in backup speed is also possible, if not applied properly.
