Will Backups Be Encrypted After Disk Encryption Is Enabled for My GaussDB Instance?

If you enable disk encryption during instance creation, the disk encryption status and the key cannot be changed later. Disk encryption will not encrypt backup data stored in OBS. To enable backup data encryption, contact customer service.

If disk encryption or backup data encryption is enabled, keep the key properly. Once the key is disabled, deleted, or frozen, the database will be unavailable and data may not be restored.

If disk encryption is enabled but backup data encryption is not enabled, you can restore instance backup data to a new instance

If both disk encryption and backup data encryption are enabled, data cannot be restored.
