Can My Instance Still Be Used in the Backup Window?
A backup window is a user-specified time segment during which backup of GaussDB instances is performed. With these periodic data backups, GaussDB allows you to restore DB instances to a point in time within the backup retention period.
- During the backup window, you can still use your GaussDB instance except rebooting it on the console.
- When starting a full backup task, GaussDB first tests connectivity to your instance. If either of the following conditions is met, the test fails and a retry is performed. If the retry fails, the backup task fails.
- DDL operations are being performed on the DB instance.
- The backup lock fails to be obtained from the DB instance.
