Functions
This section describes main functions of CBR. You can check if a certain function is available in a region on the console.
Before using CBR functions, it is recommended that you learn about basic CBR concepts.
Cloud Disk Backup
A cloud disk backup is a snapshot-based backup of EVS disks. You can back up a single disk or all disks to protect data on them.
With a backup policy, you can schedule regular backups of all disks to a vault, enabling fast restoration in case of data loss or corruption.
You can set search criteria to quickly find the backup tasks you want to manage. Then you can view their details, share, restore, or delete them if needed.
When a disk is faulty, or their data is lost, you can use a backup to quickly restore the data.
You can use a disk backup to create a disk that contains the same data as the backup.
You can share a disk backup with other accounts. Shared backups can be used to create new servers and disks.
Cloud Server Backup
Cloud server backup uses the consistency snapshot technology to protect data for ECSs and BMSs without the need to install the Agent on servers. It allows you to back up the entire servers. You are advised to use cloud server backup in scenarios that require high data consistency, such as RAID clusters.
Backup of specific disks on a server
You can create a single backup for multiple disks on a server to save the vault space.
With a backup policy, you can schedule regular backups of servers, enabling fast restoration in case of data loss or corruption.
You can set search criteria to quickly find the backup tasks you want to manage. Then you can view their details, share, restore, or delete them if needed.
Server restoration from backups
When a server is faulty, or their data is lost, you can use a backup to quickly restore the data.
You can share a server backup with other accounts. Shared backups can be used to create new servers.
Image creation from server backups
You can create images from ECS backups and then use the images to quickly provision ECSs to restore services.
With cross-region replication, you can replicate backups to destination regions and then create images and use the images to provision ECSs there.
Cloud server backup supports both crash-consistent and application-consistent backups. You can use it to back up ECSs running MySQL or SAP HANA databases, as application-consistent backups ensure transactional consistency by capturing in-memory data and pending I/O operations.
Cloud server backup enables you to replicate generated backups from one region to another. You can use the replicas in the destination region to create images and provision servers.
SFS Turbo Backup
SFS Turbo backup allows you to back up SFS Turbo file systems. An SFS Turbo file system backup can be used to create a new SFS Turbo file system, preventing the loss of important data.
With a backup policy, you can schedule regular backups of SFS Turbo file systems, enabling fast restoration in case of data loss or corruption.
You can set search criteria to quickly find the backup tasks you want to manage. Then you can view their details, share, restore, or delete them if needed.
File system creation from backups
You can use an SFS Turbo file system backup to create a file system that contains the same data as the backup.
SFS Turbo backup enables you to replicate SFS Turbo file system backups from one region to another. You can then use the replicated backup to create a file system in the destination region.
