Creating a Manual Backup

Scenarios

GaussDB(for MySQL) 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

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner and select a region and a project.
  3. Click Service List. Under Database, click GaussDB.
  4. On the Instance Management page, locate the target DB instance and choose More > Create Backup in the Operation column.
  5. 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.

  6. After a manual backup has been created, you can view and manage it on the Backup Management page.

Method 2

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner and select a region and a project.
  3. Click Service List. Under Database, click GaussDB.
  4. On the Instance Management page, click the target DB instance.
  5. On the Backups & Restorations page, click Create Backup. In the displayed dialog box, enter a backup name and a description, and 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: !<"='>&
