Creating Backup Policies

You can create backup policies in the Veeam Backup for AWS Web UI only. However, you can launch the add policy wizard directly from the Veeam Backup & Replication console — to do that, use either of the following options:

• Switch to the Home tab, click Backup Job on the ribbon, navigate to AWS > EC2, RDS, EFS or DynamoDB, and select the backup appliance on which you want to create the backup policy.
• Open the Home view, right-click Jobs, navigate to Backup > AWS > EC2, RDS, EFS or DynamoDB, and select the backup appliance on which you want to create the backup policy.

Veeam Backup & Replication will open the Add EC2 Policy, Add RDS Policy, Add EFS Policy or Add DynamoDB Policy wizard in a web browser. Complete the wizard as described in section Creating EC2 Backup Policies, Creating RDS Backup Policies, Creating EFS Backup Policies or Creating DynamoDB Backup Policies.
