Backup Polling Locations

A backup polling policy defines a file system directory where a protected database places backups without interacting directly with Recovery Appliance. The backup polling directory is an NFS mount point, and is not in a Recovery Appliance storage server.

The polling policy defines the file system path to the storage and how often it will be searched for new backups. Polling policies are optional and do not need to be created if backups are not sent to Recovery Appliance using the polling method.
