1. A method for backup error management comprising:
- receiving a first backup job error from a backup job;
providing an error indicator and at least one user selectable option;
receiving a user input corresponding to the at least one user selectable option; and
modifying a backup policy based at least in part on the received user input and the first backup error, wherein modifying the backup policy comprises at least one of;
ignoring a second backup job error in a subsequent instance of the backup job; and
excluding a resource from a subsequent instance of the backup job; and
