Creating a Backup Policy
Module: Endpoint Backup v2
Backup policies let you set backup schedules, file-level inclusions and exclusions, retention and alerting.
Navigate to Policy Management
Go to Endpoint Backup > Policy Management.
Select + Policy and use the provided smart defaults or customize the policy according to your requirements.
Policy Configuration Options
Backup Schedule: Choose from business hours (default every two hours from 8 AM-6 PM based on the local time of the asset), continuous protection, or custom schedules.
NOTE There are some limitations on how custom backup schedules can be configured. For example, you cannot select more than one option. You cannot set up your asset to backup from 8 AM - 12 PM, and then also 4 PM - 8 PM.
Throttling: Enable throttling to control network usage during business hours or configure custom schedules.
Data Selection: Use inclusion and exclusion settings to control what gets backed up (e.g., user profiles, application data, entire volumes).
Alerting Thresholds (Coming Soon): Override default alerts based on backup status, time since last successful backup, etc.
