Backup plan
Click Edit.
Backup plan editing is performed in the same way as creation (p. 192), except for
the following limitations:
It is not always possible to change backup scheme properties if the created
archive is not empty (i.e. contains backups).
1. It is not possible to change the scheme to Grandfather-Father-Son or Tower of
Hanoi.
2. If the Tower of Hanoi scheme is used, it is not possible to change the number
of levels.
In all other cases the scheme can be changed, and should continue to operate as
if the existing archives were created by a new scheme. For empty archives all
changes are possible.
Why can't I edit the backup plan?

The backup plan is currently running.
Editing of the currently running backup plan is impossible.

The backup plan has a centralized origin.
Direct editing of centralized backup plans is not possible. You need to edit the
original backup policy.
Task
Click Edit.
Why can't I edit the task?

Task belongs to a backup plan
Only tasks that do not belong to a backup plan, such as a recovery task, can
be modified by direct editing. When you need to modify a task belonging to a
local backup plan, edit the backup plan. A task belonging to a centralized
backup plan can be modified by editing the centralized policy that spawned
the plan.
