Explicit Job Packaging

To select a database object for explicit job packaging when defining your backup job, select some or all of its child objects for dynamic job packaging, but do not select the parent.

Explicit job packaging gives you the ability to customize local backup options. For example, if you run a backup job for which you have dynamically packaged the C and E drives on your server (which is explicitly packaged), you can select one set of options for drive C and another set of options for drive E.

Note: To customize volume or database options, you must package the volume or database parent items explicitly.
