Netezza Performance Server backup policy

Deployment options: Netezza Performance Server for Cloud Pak for Data System

A Netezza database backup policy is a script file that runs on the Netezza Performance Server system to perform the backup.

The script file consists of an nzbackup command line with the appropriate arguments. Each scheduled, automated backup operation with a distinct nzbackup command line must have its own policy.

For each database, your system should have a separate policy and script file for each backup type. For one database, you can have three policy and script files, representing the full, differential, and cumulative backup types. If you had three databases, you would have nine policy and script files, plus possibly one for the -globals option you specified.
