Assigning a backup set to a different backup management group
You can use the dialog box Change Backup Management Group to change the backup management group to which a backup set belongs.
About this task
The backup management group for all these backups is changed if you complete this operation. The change occurs because the backup management group share a common Snapshot copy.
When you change a backup’s backup management group, you also change that backup’s name, because the name includes the backup management group.
The report for the backup management group change is in the Miscellaneous report directory.
