Updating a profile

You can update your own backup profile or one created by another user if the Update option field on the Enter New Backup Profile Options panel was set to U (Update) when the profile was created.

About this task

You can update a backup profile at any time to add or delete source or target volumes, change the number of generations, and change other settings. However, after setup runs successfully on a profile, you cannot change the IMS SSID or Group name, or the backup method when you update the profile.

Procedure

  1. Access the System Backup Profile Display panel.
  2. Specify U on the Cmd line next to the profile you want to update, and press Enter.
  3. On the Update Backup Profile panel, you can make changes to the profile.
  4. Press PF3 to save your changes. To cancel and exit without making changes, specify CAN on the Option line and press Enter.
