Backup Data Management

You can perform the following operations on backup data:

Synchronize Backup Data

You can synchronize one or more local backup data records to remote backup storage, or synchronize one or more remote backup data records to local backup storage to provide dual protection for backup data. This section uses VM backup data as an example to describe how to synchronize local backup data to remote backup storage.

Prerequisites
  • Remote backup storage has been added to the platform in advance. For more information, see Add Remote Backup Storage.
  • The selected backup data has not been synchronized before.
  • The VM associated with the backup data and its disks are not encrypted.
Procedure
  1. In the navigation pane, choose Data Protection > Protected Resources.
  2. On the Protected Resources page, select the Virtual Machine tab.
  3. Select Local Backup.
  4. Select the VM whose backup data you want to synchronize, and then in the right-side Backup Data list, select the backup data to be synchronized.
  5. Click Bulk Actions > Sync to Remote Backup Storage.
  6. In the Sync to Remote Backup Storage dialog, specify one remote backup storage.
  7. Review the information and click OK.

Change the Owner of VM Backup Data

You can change the owner of VM backup data.

Procedure
  1. In the navigation pane, choose Data Protection > Protected Resources.
  2. On the Protected Resources page, select the Virtual Machine tab.
  3. Select the target VM, and then in the right-side Backup Data list, select the backup data whose owner you want to change.
  4. Click Bulk Actions > Change Owner.
  5. In the Change Owner dialog, specify the new owner.
  6. Review the information and click OK.

Export Platform Database Backup Data

You can export platform database backup data to your local environment.

Procedure
  1. In the navigation pane, choose Data Protection > Protected Resources.
  2. On the Protected Resources page, select the Platform Database tab.
  3. Select the storage location of the platform database backup file, such as Local Backup or Remote Backup.
  4. In the platform database backup list, select the platform database backup to be exported, and then click Actions > Export.

Delete Backup Data

After you confirm that backup data of a protected resource is no longer needed, you can delete the backup data. This section uses VM backup data as an example.

Procedure
  1. In the navigation pane, choose Data Protection > Protected Resources.
  2. On the Protected Resources page, select the Virtual Machine tab.
  3. Select the target VM, and then in the right-side Backup Data list, select the backup data to be deleted.
  4. Click Bulk Actions > Delete.
  5. In the Delete Backup Data? dialog, choose whether to also delete remote backup data as needed.
