Level 3
Policy A - For Daily Backup (Active)
- backup client A, path /project, on volume pool 'Daily'

Policy B - For Project snapshot (Not Active)
- backup client A, path /project, on volume pool 'Snapshot'

After I use Policy B to backup /project manually, Is it affect
the normal daily backup !?

Further question, Is daily backup also affected by
user-directed operation ?

Policy B will not affect Policy A. However, running a manual backup of Policy B during the day then if it were scheduled to run Policy B would not run that night since NetBackup would see that the files had been backed up that day. A manual backup of Policy B would still have no affect on Policy A.

You talking windows and archive bits?
Are you talking full or incremental (diff or cumulative?)
That changes everything!

Sorry, I explain more clear

Policy A - For Daily Backup
- perform full backup on weekend, and incremental backup on Monday to Friday
- backup client A, path /project, on volume pool "Daily"

Policy B - For Project snapshot
- Manually Full Backup
- backup client A, path /project, on volume pool "Snapshot"

If I perform Manual Backup for Policy B, Is it affect incremental backup of Policy A !? If yes, any workaround ?

In fact, for "ufsdump", I use option "u" for daily backup, and do not use option "u" for project snapshot.

As you state it more clear,
The post by JRedington should be marked as correct.
