We are looking into starting to use TDP for SQL. Question from our DBA's:

When configuring the SQL Server backups is it possible to configure a
backup
that will backup ALL the SQL Server databases (master, msdb, and user
created) with one command such that if additional databases are added to
SQL
Server they are automatically backed up?  OR does TDP have to be configured
every time a new database is added in SQL Server?
