VBS has rich functional features, such as backup, backup restoration, and backup security. Details are as follows:

Volume Backup Service

VBS allows you to back up different types of EVSs in batches. You can select a desired EVS for data backup according to your needs. The backup process has no impact on online business operations, and you do not need to shut down or uninstall the EVS in advance.

Backup mode: supports manual backups (one-off backups) and automatic policy backups (periodic backups). You can select the appropriate backup mode according to your actual business needs.
Backup policy: supports 24-hour backup throughout the day, and the backup periods by days, weeks, and user-defined days. Three backup retention options are supported, including By Time, By Number, and Save Perpetually.
Backup management: You can view backup information through the backup list and manage the backed-up data in batches.

Backup Restoration

Whether by full backups or incremental backups, you quickly and conveniently restore your data in the EVS to the status at a given backup point. You can perform backup and restoration operations in two ways: restoring data and creating an EVS.

When restoring data is selected, you can restore the backup data to the original EVS, which overwrites the current EVS data.
When creating an EVS is selected, you can achieve the migration of the EVS data.

Backup Security

With the combination of the EVS and object storage services, VBS allows you to back up the EVS data in the object storage, ensuring the utmost security for your backup data.
For the backup of an encrypted EVS, the backup data is automatically encrypted and saved.
