How Backup Plans and Templates work together
Backup Plans take priority over templates. If a backup matches both a Backup Plan and a template, the Backup Plan manages it. To have the template manage it instead, the Backup Plan needs to be disabled or deleted.
Move backups to a template
- In your Backup Radar account, go to Manage > Templates and check that a template applies to the backups you're moving.
- Go to Manage > Backup Plans.
- Find the Backup Plan and either:
- Turn off its Active switch to disable it, or
- Select the bin icon to delete it.
Once the Backup Plan is disabled or deleted, any backups that match a template are picked up by that template.
If no template applies
If no template applies to a backup, disabling or deleting the Backup Plan moves it to Monitor > Activate Backups, where you can activate it manually. See Activating your backups for step-by-step instructions.
