Assign a Filter Storage Policy for Erase Data by Browsing

Before You Begin

• Review Erase Backup/Archived Data.
• Ensure that the filter storage policy that you associate with the agent for the Erase Data by Browsing feature has retention criteria that is greater than or equal to the retention criteria of the storage policy for the data to be erased.

Required Capability: See Capabilities and Permitted Actions

To assign a filter storage policy for Erase Data by Browsing:

1. From the CommCell Browser, right-click the appropriate agent icon and then click Properties.
2. From the Storage Device tab of the agent Properties dialog box, select a filter storage policy from the Filter Storage Policy list.
3. Click OK.

Create Backup Sets/Archive Sets

Required Capability: See Capabilities and Permitted Actions

To create backup sets/archive sets for the client computer:

1. From the CommCell Browser, locate the correct client computer node, right-click the iDataAgent, Agent or instance node (depending on your agent's functionality) for which you want the backup set/archive set created, select All Tasks and then click Create New Backup Set or Create New Archive Set.
2. For most agents, from the Create New Backup Set or Create New Archive Set dialog box, enter a New Backup Set Name or New Archive Set Name (up to 32 characters) of the backup set/archive set that you want to create. For the DB2 or DB2 DPF iDataAgent, from the same dialog box, click the desired database (backup set) name under Available DB Names and move this name under Selection.

   NOTES

   • For DB2 or DB2 DPF, to prevent archive log backup failures, ensure that the name that you select is the actual name of the database and not the alias name for the database. If the database name and the corresponding alias name are different, both names are displayed under Available DB Names; if both names are the same, the name that is displayed is the database name. To find out about database names and their aliases, run the following command as a DB2 or DB2 DPF instance owner on the DB2 or DB2 DPF client: db2 list db directory.
3. Where applicable, if you want to designate this backup set/archive set as the default backup set/archive set, select Make this the Default backup set or Make this the Default Archive Set; otherwise, leave the check box cleared.
4. For most agents, verify that the storage policy copy associated with the default subclient is the storage policy that you want. If you want to select a different storage policy, click the storage policy box and select the one you want from the list. If the agent supports a system-state subclient, repeat this step for that subclient. For the DB2 or DB2 DPF iDataAgent, to establish a storage policy for all the log files, click the storage policy in the list provided.
5. Where applicable, if you want to create additional subclients within this backup set/archive set:
   • Click Add.
   • Follow Create a New Subclient procedure.
   • Repeat this step for each additional subclient that you want to define within this backup set/archive set.
   • When all subclients have been added, click OK.
   • A message will advise you to schedule backups for your new backup set. It is recommended that you elect to set a schedule now. You can also associate this backup set/archive set with an All Agent Types schedule policy (which is automatically created by the system, or can be a user-defined Data Protection schedule policy). If you have already associated a schedule policy at a previous level (Agent, Client, or Client Computer Group) the schedules defined in the Schedule Policy will be automatically applied to the new backup set/archive set. See Schedule Policy for more information.
     • If you want to associate this backup set/archive set with an All Agent Types schedule policy, click Associate with Generic Schedule Policy, and then select that schedule policy from the drop-down list box. Click OK.
     • If you have selected to define a schedule for this backup set/archive set:
       • Click Schedule.
       • If applicable, from the Backup Options dialog box, select the type of backup that you want to schedule.
       • If you want to set Advanced Backup/Archive Options, click Advanced.
       • After selecting the backup type and any advanced options, click OK. The Schedule Details dialog box appears.
       • From the Schedule Details tab, select the scheduling options that you want to apply, then click OK.
     • If you don't want to create a backup/archive schedule at this time, click Do Not Schedule, and then click OK.

   The new backup set/archive set is displayed in the CommCell Browser.
