NetVault Plug-in for Microsoft 365 13.4 - User Guide

Introducing NetVault Plug-in for Microsoft 365 Installing and removing the plug-in Configuring the plug-in Backing up data Restoring data Troubleshooting

Selecting data for a backup

You must use sets — Backup Selection Set, Backup Options Set, Schedule Set, Target Set, and Advanced Options Set — to create a backup job.

Backup Selection Sets are essential for Incremental Backups. Create the Backup Selection Set during a Full Backup, and use it for Full and Incremental Backups. The backup job reports an error if you do not use a Selection Set for the Incremental Backup. For more information, see the Quest NetVault Administrator’s Guide.
