  1. Manage Backup Settings
    ● Backup status is updated every morning at 6:00.
    ● The backup cycle can be set as desired by the user. By default, VM is set to 7 days, EBS is set to 7 days, and other resources are set to 1 day.
    ● You can set backup exception resources using tags.

  2. Backup trends for the last 7 days
    ● The percentage is displayed in a chart in the following order: backup success (blue)/backup exception (orange)/backup failure (red) for the past 7 days.
    ● The number of each status can be viewed as a tooltip when you hover your mouse over the chart.
    ● You can select and check by CSP.
    ● If you change backup setting variables or exception conditions, those changes will be reflected in the backup trend chart for the next day.

  3. Backup status summary information
    ● Shows summary information about the three CSPs.
    ● The backup rate refers to the ratio of backup success and backup exceptions among all resources.

  1. View detailed information about the backup target resource
    ● You can check the information by setting the filter conditions for backup status/service type. By default, backup failure status and all service types are set.
    ● Filter/Export/Sort/Paging functions are provided in the table.
    ● You can check the Name, ID, backup status, action, resource creation time, most recent backup time, backup cycle, Tags, and Memo for each resource.
    ● Actions can be set from the 'ACTIONS' button on the top right of the table, and are activated by checking the check boxes of the resources.
    ● You can leave a note (up to 128 characters) by pressing the ACTIONS > Leave a Note button, and it will not affect the action. (You can delete the note by leaving the note window empty.)
    ● The list of actions is as follows:

How to set backup cycle/backup exceptions


In the '1. Backup Settings Management' menu, you can configure detailed backup monitoring settings as follows.

※ Backup cycle

● The backup cycle is the criterion for backup success or failure. If there is a backup history within the set cycle, the backup is processed as successful, and if there is no backup history within the set cycle, the backup is processed as failed.
● The backup cycle can be changed by selecting it by CSP, account, or service.
● If you click the Change button, the changes will be temporarily reflected in the table so you can check them at a glance, and if you click the Apply button, the changes will be immediately reflected in the actual data.
● The backup cycle can be set to 365 days or less.

※ Backup exceptions

● Backup exceptions can be set by setting tag conditions to exclude resources with tags that meet the conditions from backup management.
● Backup exceptions can be set by selecting conditions by CSP, account, or service.
● If you click the Add button, the changes will be temporarily reflected in the table so you can check them at a glance. If you then click the Apply button, the translated contents will be immediately reflected in the actual data.
● Tag conditions consist of four items: Key (tag key, 256 characters or less) / Conditions for value (conditions for tag value) / Value (tag value, 256 characters or less) / Ignore case (check = OK).
● The list of Conditions for value is as follows:
    - Equals: The tag key must be equal to Key, and the tag value must be equal to Value.
   - Not equals: The tag key must be equal to Key, and the tag value must be a different value from Value.
 - Starts with: The tag key must be equal to Key, and the tag value must start with Value.
   - Ends with : The tag key must be the same as Key, and the tag value must end with Value.
   - Contains: The tag key must be equal to Key, and the tag value must contain Value.
 - All value: The tag key must be the same as the Key.
   - No value: Tag key must be equal to Key, and tag value must be blank. (Value cannot be set.)
 - Starts with (Only Key) : Tag key must start with Key. (Value cannot be set.)
   - Equals (Only Value): The tag value must be equal to the Value. (Key cannot be set.)
 - All Resource: Exceptions all resources of the selected accounts and services.

● Case ignorance applies to both Key and Value, and a v is displayed at the end of chips to which the condition is applied.
● Up to 30 conditions can be set per account.
● You can delete a condition by clicking the trash can-shaped button. Additionally, you can delete all conditions that are identical to that condition.
