About copying jobs instead of delegating jobs in CAS

Last published : Apr 02, 2026
If the managed Backup Exec server's storage and media data are kept on a local database on the managed Backup Exec server, the central administration server cannot delegate jobs to it. Instead, you can copy job options, default schedules, error-handling rules, and alert configurations from the central administration server to the managed Backup Exec server. A persistent network connection to the central administration server is not needed when the jobs are run locally on the managed Backup Exec server.
Use the same names for objects on the central administration server and all of the managed Backup Exec servers that you want to copy jobs to. For example, use the same name for a storage pool on the central administration server and on the managed Backup Exec server. Then, it is not necessary to customize settings or names for each managed Backup Exec server that you copy jobs to.
