When the NetBackup master server is configured to perform a full backup, NetBackup
backs up all files in a specified folder or volume to a storage unit. The archive bit is cleared
as each file is backed up. If the full backup fails, NetBackup will attempt another full
backup at the same time each day until successfully completed. A successfully completed
backup will include all files.
The NetBackup administrator can schedule full backups and incremental backups to
occur automatically and unattended, under the control of the NetBackup master server.
Full, incremental, and true image backups can only be performed by the NetBackup
master server. When properly scheduled, the server-directed backups will meet most of
your backup requirements.
