Intronis Backup Policies
Barracuda RMM now has policies for Intronis Backup. Using policies, you can set up alerting for Intronis Backup, including automatic trouble ticket generation and email alerts, for Intronis Files and Folders and Physical Imaging Standard backups.
For more information, see Working with Intronis Backup Policies.
Intronis Backup Alerts
You can attach alerts to Intronis Backup policies to warn you of incomplete backups or let you know when backups finish. Alerts can be set to create trouble tickets automatically and to send out emails when backups fail. These notifications keep you informed when your backups need attention.
