Once you've\ndiscovered one or more applications, you can protect them all at once by\napplying a [backup template](/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/create-plan/create-template) and [profile](/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/concepts/resource-profiles#create-profile) or add them to\nthe applications list as unmanaged or ignored VMs.\n\nUse Linux Change Block Tracking to protect your generic applications\n--------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nThis option leverages the Linux Change Block Tracking (CBT) driver and\ntracks block level changes to logical volumes for incremental backups.\nDatabases and applications that run on Linux can be discovered and managed using\nthis option.\n\nDuring the management console configuration, you may have already added the\nhosts that have the applications to your appliances. See [Add a Host](/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/configuration/manage-hosts-and-their-connected-applications) for\nmore information.\n\nLinux Change Block Tracking requirements\n----------------------------------------\n\nLinux CBT requires the following:\n\n- Linux application volumes managed by Linux logical volume manager (LVM)\n\n- At least 20% free space for the Linux application's LVM volume group, not\n including the boot volume when protecting the application\n\n- A Linux host with a Backup and DR agent installed\n\n- A Linux host running a supported version of the Linux operating system,\n refer to the\n [Backup and DR support matrix](/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/supportmatrix-backupdr).\n\n- Successful operation normally requires some scripting work, which is often\n minimal, but may be extensive. If you need assistance, contact\n [Support](/backup-disaster-recovery/docs/support) for help.\n\nProtect your generic applications\n---------------------------------\n\nUse the following instructions to discover and protect generic applications:\n\n1. In the management console, click the **App Manager** drop-down menu and\n click **Applications**.\n\n2. Click **Add Application**.\n\n3. Select **Generic App (volume based)** and then follow the steps in the\n wizard."]]
