Create a Plan with a Backup Task
A plan includes different types of tasks that you want to perform. Typically a plan includes a primary tasks followed by a secondary task. Typically, a primary task is a backup task or replicate from a remote Console task. The role of a backup task is to create a backup of the source nodes that you want to protect. You can back up data from Windows and Linux physical and virtual machines. You can then save the backup data to another location as an added precaution.
