Storage Policies in Command Center

When upgrading to Innovation Release 11.38, a container backup plan will be created in the Command Center for the existing data protection storage policies. The associated workloads of these storage policies will also be linked to the new backup plan. This setup allows users to manage storage policies and their associated workloads directly from the Command Center. The container backup plan itself will not include any data backup scheduling policies. After the conversion, the existing associations between workloads and their scheduling policies will remain unchanged, ensuring backups continue to run according to their established schedules.
