How Can I Use a Backup to Create an EVS Disk or ECS?

You can use CSBS backups to create ECSs and use VBS backups to create EVS disks.

  • CSBS backups cannot be directly used to create ECSs. You need to use a backup to create a private image and then use the private image to create ECSs.

    For details about how to create a private image from a CSBS backup, see Creating a Full-ECS Image from a CSBS Backup. For details about how to create ECSs from a private image, see Creating an ECS from an Image.

  • VBS backups can be directly used to create EVS disks. For details, see "Using a Backup to Create a Disk" in Cloud Backup and Recovery User Guide.
