other changes.

Protection Policies Explained
The Acuity Data Protection Policy feature uses policies to protect multiple volumes systematically. A policy is a named
collection of up to three scheduled tasks that can be applied to multiple volumes (without having to enter all the details
for each volume).
Schedule tasks within the policies carefully. Throughput and time spent completing the tasks are optimized by
sequencing a few jobs at a time and not scheduling them to kick off all at the same time.
To view, add, or change policies, navigate to the Provisioning tab > Data Services View > Protection QoS tab.
Working with Protection Policies
The Actions menu on the Protection QoS tab allows for policies to be added, modified, activated or deactivated, run, or
deleted.
Each policy can have up to three tasks, which can be either snapshots or replications. Each task has a basic and an
advanced mode. For more information on configuring tasks, see Snapshots Overview.
