Managing a Backup
Scenarios
DSS disk backups are created using the CBR service.
This topic describes how to configure a backup policy for a disk. With backup policies configured, data on DSS disks can be periodically backed up to improve data security.
Configuring a Backup Policy
- Log in to the management console.
- Choose Dedicated Distributed Storage Service > Disks.
The disk list page is displayed.
- In the disk list, locate the disk whose data you want to back up and choose More > Configure Backup Policy in the Operation column.
The Configure Backup Policy dialog box is displayed.
- In the backup policy list, locate the target backup policy to be associated and click Associate.
NOTE:
If the disk has been associated with a backup policy, you need to disassociate the disk with its backup policy and then associate it with the new policy. For details, see Data Backup Using a Backup Policy in the Volume Backup Service User Guide.
- (Optional) To create a new backup policy, click Edit Backup Policy to switch to the Volume Backup Service page.
For details, see Data Backup Using a Backup Policy in the Volume Backup Service User Guide.
- In the displayed Associate Backup Policy dialog box, click OK.
After the association is complete, the system automatically backs up the data on the disk according to the backup policy.
- In the displayed Associate Backup Policy dialog box, click OK.
After the association is complete, the system automatically backs up the data on the disk according to the backup policy.
