- Application Backup and Automatic Backup.
A database backup requires an Application Backup schedule. You cannot
perform backups if this type of schedule is not included in the policy. The
database agent automatically creates this schedule, named
Default-Application-Backup, when you configure a new database policy.
You also need one or more automatic backup schedules if you plan to have
NetBackup perform automatic backups, or if you use Snapshot Client features.

SQL Server backup types
Backup type Description
Application Backup
The Application Backup schedule enables user-controlled NetBackup operations from
the client. These operations include those initiated from the client and those initiated
by an automatic schedule on the master server. NetBackup uses the Application Backup
schedule when the user starts a backup manually. Configure at least one Application
Backup schedule for each database policy. The Default-Application-Backup schedule is
configured automatically as an Application Backup schedule.
Automatic Backup
An Automatic Backup schedule specifies the dates and times for NetBackup to
automatically start backups. NetBackup runs the scripts in the order that they appear in
the file list. If there is more than one client in the policy, the scripts are run on each
client.
