About protection plans
A protection plan defines when backups are performed, how long the backups are retained, and the type of storage to use. Once you have set up a protection plan, you can subscribe assets to that protection plan. You can also configure access to the protection plan for your workload administrators before or after you configure the protection plan. To set up access, you need to configure roles in RBAC and then assign those roles to the protection plan.
Before you create a protection plan, you must configure all storage options. You can use the web UI to configure the OpenStorage, AdvancedDisk, Cloud storage, and MSDP storage options. Also, the web UI lets you configure a disk pool and a storage unit as well.
After you create a protection plan, only certain settings are available to change or configure. See Table: Protection plan settings that can be configured and edited.
