# Setting Default Plans

You can set default plans so that plans are automatically assigned to protect your data:

- If you use the Laptop solution, the default plan is used to backup devices for users who are not associated with a plan.

- For all other solutions, an applicable default plan is automatically associated with the default subclient when the software is installed on a client.

  For example, if you install a database solution, the default backup plan is automatically associated with the default subclient.

- If a default plan for your solution is not available, the default backup plan is used.

Note: The default backup plan configuration is no longer supported for new clients. Instead, configure plan rules for newly installed clients.

## Procedure

1. From the Command Center navigation pane, go to Manage > CommCell.

   The CommCell details page appears.

2. Under Default plans, click Edit.

   The Edit default plans dialog box appears.

3. From the Backup plan list, select the default backup plan.

   To clear the existing default backup plan association, from the Backup plan list, select None.

   Caution

   After you clear the default backup plan, you will not be able to undo the action. To associate a backup plan for your solution in the CommCell, you must add a plan rule.

4. From the Laptop plan list, select the default laptop plan.

   To clear the existing default laptop plan association, from the Laptop plan list, select None.

5. Optional: To automatically associate the laptop plan to all future laptops that are installed using an authorization code, move the Activate with default plans for installs with authcode toggle key to the right.

6. Click Save.
