Manage Backup and Restore Plans

Managed Backup enables you to store the configuration of each backup or restore you create so that you can run it at any time either manually, or on schedule. This configuration is stored as a backup plan or restore plan_, which you can create using the Backup or Restore Wizards. Once a backup plan is configured, you can locate it in Management Console on Computers

Or on the Backup Plans tab of your Backup application.
