Querying a Vault

You can set search criteria for querying desired vaults in the vault list.

Prerequisites

A vault has been created.

Viewing Vault Details

  1. Log in to the CBR console.

    1. Log in to the management console.
    2. Click in the upper left corner and select a region.
    3. Click and choose Storage > Cloud Backup and Recovery. Select a backup type from the left navigation pane.

  2. On the Vaults tab, view basic information about all vaults. Related parameters are described in the following table.

    Table 1 Basic information parameters

    Parameter

    Description

    Name/ID

    Name and ID of the vault. Click the vault name to view details about the vault.

    Type

    Vault type, which can be backup vault or replication vault

    • A backup vault stores backups of servers, file systems, and disks.
    • A replication vault stores replicas of backups.

    Status

    Vault status. Table 2 describes the vault statuses.

    Specifications

    Vault specifications, which can be server backup or application-consistent backup

    • A server backup vault stores backups of non-database servers.
    • An application-consistent backup vault stores backups of database servers.

    Backup Data Redundancy

    Redundancy policy for the backup data storage

    • Single-AZ: Backup data is stored in a single AZ, with lower costs.
    • Multi-AZ: Backup data is stored in multiple AZs to achieve higher reliability.

    Used/Total Vault Capacity (GB)

    Capacity used by the backups in the vault. It shows the space used by backups and the total vault capacity.

    For example: If 20/100 is displayed, 20 GB has been used out of the 100 GB vault capacity.

    Associated Servers/File Systems/Disks

    Number of servers, file systems, and disks associated with the vault. You can click the number to view details of associated resources. The associated capacity shown on the details page is the total capacity of all the resources that have been associated with this vault.

    Billing Mode

    Billing mode of the vault, which can be Yearly/Monthly or Pay-per-use.

    • Yearly/monthly is a prepaid billing mode. You are billed based on the subscription duration you specify. This mode is ideal when the resource use duration is predictable. A longer subscription often means a lower cost.
    • Pay-per-use is a postpaid billing mode. You are billed based on your resource usage and you can increase or delete resources anytime. Fees are deducted from your account balance.

  3. On the Vaults tab page, set filter criteria to view specific vaults.

    • Select a value from the status drop-down list to query vaults by status. Table 2 describes the vault statuses.
      Table 2 Vault statuses

      Status

      Attribute

      Description

      All statuses

      --

      All vaults are displayed if this value is selected.

      Available

      A stable state

      A stable state after a vault task is complete.

      This state allows most of the operations.

      Locked

      An intermediate state

      An intermediate state displayed when a capacity expansion, billing mode change, or specifications change is in progress.

      If a vault is in this state, you can perform operations, such as applying a policy and associating servers, file systems, or disks. However, the following operations are not allowed on such a vault: expanding the vault capacity, changing the billing mode, and changing the vault specifications. Once those operations are complete, the vault status will become Available.

      Deleting

      An intermediate state

      An intermediate state displayed when a vault is being deleted.

      In this state, a progress bar is displayed indicating the deletion progress. If the progress bar remains unchanged for an extended time, an exception has occurred. Contact customer service.

      Frozen

      A stable state

      If your resources enter a pending deletion period in the case that your subscription has expired or your account is in arrears, or if the resources do not meet security requirements, your vault is put in the Frozen state.

      If the resources are frozen due to arrears, the state will become Available after you pay off the outstanding balance, and the resources can then be used normally. If you do not pay off the outstanding balance in time, the system automatically deletes the frozen resources after the retention period expires. If the resources are frozen due to security reasons, contact customer service.

      Error

      A stable state

      A vault enters the Error state when an exception occurs during task execution.

      You can click Tasks in the navigation pane on the left to view the error cause. If the error persists, contact customer service.

    • Search a vault by its name or ID.
    • Click Search by Tag in the upper right corner to search for vaults by tag.
      • On the displayed Search by Tag page, enter an existing tag key and value and click . The added tag search criteria are displayed under the text boxes. Click Search in the lower right corner.
      • You can add a maximum of 10 tags by clicking . They will be applied together for a combination search.
      • You can click Reset in the lower right corner to reset the search criteria.

  4. Click the name of a specific vault to view vault details.

    • The values of used capacity and backup space are rounded off to integers. CBR will display 0 GB for any backup space less than 1 GB. For example, there may be 200 MB backup space used, but it will be displayed as 0 GB on the console.
    • After changing the name of the resource associated with the vault, you need to perform an automatic or manual backup again to synchronize the change.
