To add a StorSimple backup policy

1. On the device Quick Start page, click the Backup Policies tab. This will take you to the Backup Policies page.

2. At the bottom of the page, click Add.

3. In the Add Backup Policy dialog box, do the following:

   1. Specify a backup policy name that contains between 3 and 150 characters.
   2. Assign one or more volumes to this backup policy. If you are using other cloud service providers, based on your first selection, the drop-down list will show volumes belonging to only that cloud service provider. This will allow you to group volumes belonging to a single cloud service provider for taking a snapshot.
   3. Click the check icon to save the policy.

The newly added policy will be displayed in the tabular view on the Backup Policies page.
