Schedule BackupΒΆ
Using our service catalog, you can setup a recurring backup job for one ore more of your block storage volumes.
The backup will be ran using our Platform automation tool but using this to setup recurring backups can be a complex task. The service catalog greatly simplified this.
To setup the service, first follow the general instructions on our Service catalog page.
Then follow these instructions:
Give your service a name and optionally a description.
In the Cron in GMT field you decide when and how often the job should run. You can use hourly, daily or weekly as base. Select the one that is closest to what you want to do. If you for example want to run a backup job once per night, select daily and then set the Hour(s) field to the hour you want to run the job.
In Age of backup deletion in days you select how many historical backups you want to keep. If you keep the default value of 10, when creating backups, previous backups that are older than 10 days gets deleted.
In the Volume field, select the volume that you want to backup.
Press Launch when done.
