Configure backup options

You can configure backup options for a protection plan.

See the Managing protection plans section of the NetBackup Web UI Administrator's Guide, for details of how to create a protection plan.

To configure the backup options while configuring a protection plan

  1. In the Backup options page, under the Resource kind selection section,
    • By default, Include all resource kinds in the backup option is selected to include all resource kinds for the backup job.

    • Select Exclude the following resource kinds from the backup option to exclude the resource kinds from the backup job. Click Select to choose the resource kinds from the static list. The selected resource kinds are displayed in the text field or you can manually enter the custom resource definition (CRD) with correct format (type.group). You can delete the selected resource kinds from the exclude list.

      In case, the custom resource kind definitions are not present in the static list then you can enter custom resource definition (CRD) manually. For example: demo.nbu.com.

    Note:

    Exclude list of resource kinds takes precedence in terms of mapping the resources over the labels selected for backup.

  2. Under the Labels selection section, click Add to add the labels to map its associated resources for the backup, enter the label prefix and key, and then select a operator. All associated resources of the included labels are mapped for the backup job.

    Following are the four operators which you can add to a label:

    • Enter a label key equal to a value.

    • Enter a label key which already exists, without any values.

    • Enter a label key which is in a set of values.

    • Enter a label key not in a set of values.

    You can add multiple values is in/not in the set of values with comma separated.

    Note:

    Selected labels must be present at the time of backup to ensure that the conditions are applied successfully.

    Note:

    Label selection must be exclusive of selecting any resource kind which doesn't contradict between multiple label conditions.

Review page displays the excluded list of resource kinds and the selected labels for inclusions, and the selected storage units selected.

Note:

You can edit or delete the protection plan created for Kubernetes workloads.

You cannot customize the protection plan created for Kubernetes workloads.
