PowerProtect Data Manager overview Use PowerProtect Data Manager with the application agent to perform the following operations:

Automate the configuration of the application agent backup policy and protection storage settings. Create a catalog of backups that are produced by the application agent, and then monitor that catalog data to determine if retention

policies are being adhered to. Manage the life cycle of backups that are created by the application agentthat is, ensure that the backups are marked for garbage

collection based on the rules of the retention policy.

PowerProtect Data Manager does not change the way that the application agent works. DBAs or system/backup administrators create the backups and perform the restores.
