Keyword Phrase (Optional)

The Keyword Phrase policy attribute specifies a key phrase that NetBackup will associate with all backups or archives for this policy. Windows and UNIX clients can then optionally list or restore only the backups that have this phrase associated with them (see the appropriate NetBackup user's guide). The user interfaces on NetBackup clients other than Windows and UNIX do not support keyword phrases.

You can use the same keyword phrase for more than one policy. This makes it possible to link backups from related policies. For example, you can use one keyword phrase for full backups and another for incremental backups.

The phrase can be a maximum of 128 characters in length. All printable characters are permitted including spaces and periods. By default, there is no keyword phrase.

Windows and UNIX clients can also specify a keyword phrase for a user backup or archive. A user keyword phrase overrides the policy phrase.
