The Create New Protection Group Wizard guides you through the process of protecting your data both for servers and client computers. You can create two kinds of protections groups:
- Servers. Select this option for backing up file servers
and application servers.
- Clients. Select this option for backing up data from
laptops and desktops.
Protection group creation involves making a series of decisions about how you want to configure the group. These decisions are provided in the following table:
Server | Clients |
---|---|
|
|
Throughout the protection group creation process, the wizard provides default options that you can override if you select. If you have questions at any point in the process, click Help.
