Dynamic and Explicit Job Packaging
40 Agent for Microsoft SQL Server Guide
Mark Objects for Dynamic Job Packaging
When you mark an object for dynamic job packaging when defining a backup job,
CA ARCserve Backup automatically selects all the components of that object
(child volumes, files, and so on) for backup.
To mark an object for dynamic job packaging
1.
On the Source tab in the Backup Manager, expand the directory tree until the
object you want to mark for dynamic job packaging is displayed.
2.
Click the square next to the object. The square next to the object, and the
squares next to all the children of the object, become completely green. In
the following example, Microsoft SQL Server has been marked for dynamic
job packaging. All of its children are also marked for dynamic job packaging.
Explicit Job Packaging
To select a database object for explicit job packaging when defining your backup
job, select some or all of its child objects for dynamic job packaging, but do not
select the parent.
Explicit job packaging gives you the ability to customize local backup options. For
example, if you run a backup job for which you have dynamically packaged the
C and E drives on your server (which is explicitly packaged), you can select one
set of options for drive C and another set of options for drive E.
Note:
To customize volume or database options, you must package the volume
or database parent items explicitly.
