Applying Backup Policy to Protected Computers

To configure individual Veeam Agent backup jobs on protected computers added to a backup policy, Veeam Backup & Replication applies settings of the backup policy to these computers. This operation is performed automatically at the time when the backup policy is created and at the process of automatic protection group rescan. You can also apply backup policy settings manually at any time. This may be required, for example, in case one or more protected computers could not be accessed over the network at the time when the backup policy was created.

To assign a backup policy to protected computers:

  1. Open the Home view.
  2. In the inventory pane, select Jobs.
  3. In the working area, select the backup policy and click Apply configuration on the ribbon or right-click the policy and select Apply configuration.
