QMB uses maintenance policies for configuring database maintenance tasks. Prior to creating a policy, you need to register an SQL server in the program.
To create a maintenance policy, select an SQL server from the list and click the Add a maintenance policy button. The maintenance policy creation wizard will start. It consists of the following steps:
- Selection of a maintenance policy template or creation of an empty policy
- Selection of maintained databases
- Configuration of backup creation, coping and storage parameters
- Viewing and editing of QMB Jobs (when creating a template-based policy)
- Entering the name of the maintenance policy
- Final step of the maintenance policy creation wizard
- Execution of recommended operations prior to starting regular maintenance using a policy (if required)
