How Can I Configure a Backup Policy?
You configure your backup policy by setting the following three parameters, based on your needs:
- Backup Period
- By week: specifies on which days of each week the backup job will be executed.
- By day: specifies the backup interval in the unit of days.
- Execution Time
You can specify multiple execution times in a day. A maximum of 24 execution times can be set in a day. The backup interval must be not shorter than one hour.
- Retention Rule
- By time: specifies the duration (such as one month or three months) of backups generated based on the policy. Expired backups will be automatically deleted.
- By quantity: specifies the maximum number of retained backups. When the retained backups reach this limit, the earliest backup will be deleted each time a new backup is generated.
- Permanently: Backups will not be deleted.
The deletion of a backup has no influence on the validity of backups generated later than the deleted backup.
