You can change the backup set attached to the server to reconfigure it for backup. When you replace the backup set associated with the server, the content rule and the backup policy that the server follows also changes. Server backups follow the schedule defined in the backup policy of the new backup sets attached to the server. The corresponding recovery points belonging to the previous backup set are not deleted. However, in case of common profiles present in the old and new backup sets, the recovery points are retained.
