Step 3: Associate a Resource with the Vault

If you have already associated servers, file systems, or disks when purchasing a vault, skip this step.

After a server backup vault, SFS Turbo backup vault, or disk backup vault is created, you can associate servers, file systems, or disks with the vault to back up these resources.

Prerequisites

  • The servers you plan to associate with a vault must be in the Running or Stopped state.
  • The disks you plan to associate with a vault must be in the Available or In-use state.
  • The SFS Turbo file systems you plan to associate with a vault must be in the Available state.
  • The servers you plan to associate with a vault must have at least one disk attached.
  • The vault and the resources you plan to associate with it must be in the same region.
  • The total size of the resources to be associated cannot be greater than the vault capacity.

Procedure

  1. Log in to CBR Console.

    1. Log in to the management console.
    2. Click in the upper left corner and select your region and project.
    3. Click and choose Storage > Cloud Backup and Recovery. Select a backup type from the left navigation pane.

  2. On a backup page, locate the target vault and click Associate Server, Associate File System, or Associate Disk.
  3. In the resource list, select the resources you want to associate with the vault. After resources are selected, they are added to the list of selected resources. See Figure 1.

    Figure 1 Associate Server

  4. Click OK. Then on the Associated Servers tab page, you can view the number of resources that have been associated.

    If a new disk is attached to an associated server, CBR automatically identifies the new disk and includes the new disk in subsequent backup tasks.
