To automatically perform backups of an SAP environment, you need to create backup policies. A backup policy with the "MS-SQL-Server" policy type that is selected must be created for R/3 database backups. Batch files, which initiate the backup of the database and transaction logs, must be added to the Backup Selections list in the policy.

Information is available for how to create the batch files that are needed and how to configure backup policies.

For backups of the executables disk (a file-system backup), a backup policy must be created with the Windows policy type selected.

For information on Windows policies, see the NetBackup System Administrator Guide for Windows, Volume 1.
