Cloning Backup Policy

In this article

    You can clone backup policies configured in Veeam Backup & Replication. For example, you may want to configure a backup policy that will be used as a ‘policy template’, and use this policy to create multiple policies with similar settings.

    To clone a backup policy:

    1. Open the Home view.
    2. In the inventory pane, select Jobs.
    3. In the working area, select the backup policy and click Clone on the ribbon or right-click the backup policy and select Clone.
    4. After a backup policy is cloned, you can edit all its settings, including the job name.

    Cloning Backup Policy Note:

    The backup policy cloning functionality is available only in the Enterprise and Enterprise Plus editions of Veeam Backup & Replication.
