To perform a manual backup

2. Start the NetBackup Administration Console.
3. In the left pane, click Policies.
4. In the All Policies pane, select the policy you want to test.
5. Select Actions > Manual Backup.

   A parent job contains the whole file list and one or more child jobs. A child job is automatically launched for each host that contains SharePoint data. For example, assume that a SharePoint farm consists of four separate hosts. In this case, one parent job and four child jobs appear in the Activity Monitor. The front-end web server is listed as the client name for all jobs.
