Creating a Manual Backup

Scenarios

This section guides you on how to create a manual backup. Creating a backup for a DB instance helps ensure data can be restored if needed, ensuring data reliability.

When you delete a DB instance, its automated backups are also deleted but its manual backups are retained.

    • The description contains a maximum of 256 characters and cannot contain the carriage return character and the following special characters: >!<"&'=

  4. Check the result:

    • During the creation of a manual backup, you can query the backup status on the Backup Management or the Backups & Restorations page. The backup status is Backing up. The time it takes to complete the backup depends on the size of the job.
