Creating separate selection lists for each computer or resource

Backup Exec includes default settings that enable separate selection lists to be created for each resource or computer you select when you create a new backup selection list outside of a backup job. This feature does not apply when you create a selection list while creating a backup job.

If you set up Backup Exec to create a separate selection list for each resource or computer, the selection list name will contain either the default name or a user-defined name followed by the name of the computer or resource that you selected for backup.

To create separate selection lists for each computer or resource

  1. On the Tools menu, select Options.

  2. In the Properties pane, under Settings, select Selection List.

  3. Select the appropriate option:

    See Application settings for a selection list.

  4. Click OK.
