Abstract
Assets to associate to a data protection policy and configuration information for the policy is received. The configuration information includes a data protection job to perform for the assets and a schedule for the job. A shadow policy is generated including the configuration information from the data protection policy and a retry protocol. The data protection job is performed according to the schedule. A failure of the data protection job for an asset is detected. The asset is moved out of the data protection policy and into the shadow policy. The data protection job for the asset is retried according to the retry protocol in the shadow policy.
