Copy Policies
A Copy Policy defines what type of a Copy to create, where the Copy resides (Copy Repository), when to create a Copy (frequency) and how to manage the life cycle of a Copy (expiry and retention). A Copy Policy, a centralized template is a collection of protection rules. You can apply a Policy to multiple application resources or volumes. Copy Policy is a resource that contains different Copy Types and is used to protect a database using the different Copy Types.
