Improving the protection level of a drive
When the status of a drive-based backup indicates that it needs attention, you
should take steps to improve the status.
You might need to add a drive to an existing backup, modify the schedule of a
backup, edit the settings of a backup, or define a new backup.
See “Best practices for backing up ” on page 48.
