Creating a Manual Backup¶
Scenarios¶
TaurusDB allows you to create manual backups for available primary nodes. You can restore data from backups to ensure data reliability.
When you delete a DB instance, its automated backups are also deleted but its manual backups are retained.
Method 1¶
Log in to the management console.
Click
in the upper left corner and select a region and a project.Click Service List. Under Databases, click TaurusDB.
On the Instances page, locate the target DB instance and choose More > Create Backup in the Operation column.
In the displayed dialog box, enter a backup name and description. Then, click OK. If you want to cancel the backup creation task, click Cancel.
The backup name must consist of 4 to 64 characters and start with a letter. It can contain only uppercase letters, lowercase letters, digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_).
The description must consist of a maximum of 256 characters and cannot contain the carriage return character or the following special characters: !<"='>&
The time required for creating a manual backup depends on the data volume of the DB instance.
After a manual backup has been created, you can view and manage it on the Backups page.
