Creating an SFS Turbo Backup Vault

Procedure

1. Log in to CBR Console.
   1. Log in to the management console.
   2. Click in the upper left corner and select your region and project.
   3. Choose Storage > Cloud Backup and Recovery > SFS Turbo Backups.

2. In the upper right corner of the page, click Create SFS Turbo Backup Vault.
3. Select a protection type.
   • Backup: The created vault is an SFS Turbo backup vault, which stores backups of SFS Turbo file systems.

4. (Optional) In the file system list, select the file systems to be backed up. After file systems are selected, they are added to the list of selected file systems. See Figure 1.
   Figure 1 Selecting file systems

   

   

   • The selected file systems must have not been associated with a vault and must be in the Available state.
   • You can associate file systems with the vault you are creating if you skip this step.

5. Specify the vault capacity. This capacity indicates the total size of the file systems that you want to associate with this vault. You need to properly plan the vault capacity, which must be at least the same as the size of the file systems you want to back up. The capacity ranges from 10 GB to 10485760 GB.
6. Determine whether to configure auto backup.
   • If you select Configure, you must then select an existing backup policy or create a new policy. After the vault is created, the system will apply the policy to this vault, and all file systems associated with this vault will be automatically backed up based on this policy.
   • If you select Skip, file systems associated with this vault will not be automatically backed up until you apply a backup policy to it.

7. (Optional) Add tags to the vault.

   A tag is represented in the form of a key-value pair. Tags are used to identify, classify, and search for vaults. Vault tags are used to filter and manage vaults only. A vault can have a maximum of 10 tags.

   Table 1 describes the parameters of a tag.

   Table 1 Tag parameter description

   Parameter	Description	Example Value
   Key	Each tag has a unique key. You can customize the key or select the key of an existing tag created in TMS. A tag key: Can contain 1 to 36 Unicode characters. Can contain only letters, digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_).	Key_0001
   Value	A tag value can be repetitive or left blank. A tag value: Can contain 0 to 43 Unicode characters. Can contain only letters, digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_).	Value_0001

8. Specify a name for the vault.

   A name must contain 1 to 64 characters including digits, letters, underscores (_), or hyphens (-), for example, vault-612c.

   

   You can use the default name, which is in the format of vault_xxxx.

9. Complete the creation as prompted.
10. Go back to the SFS Turbo Backups page. You can see the created vault in the vault list.

    You can associate file systems to the new vault or perform backup for the file systems. For details, see Vault Management.
