Starting and Stopping Backup Policies

You can start a backup policy manually, for example, if you want to create an additional restore point in the snapshot or backup chain and do not want to modify the configured backup policy schedule.

Note

You cannot start or stop manually the virtual network configuration backup policy.

To start or stop a backup policy, do the following:

Open the Policies page in the Backup section of the main menu.
In the policies list, select the required policy and click Start/Stop on the ribbon or right-click the policy and select Start/Stop.
