Use Back up Now to run a backup on demand.
This saves your backup in the Cloud Storage Container you specified when provisioning your BDDCS instance. The backup files are saved for the duration of the retention period if it is configured, or for the default retention period of 30 days.
You can run a backup on both a running BDDCS instance and on the instance that is stopped. When the backup operation runs, it does not change the state of the instance. That is, if backup starts when the instance is running, it won't stop the instance, and if backup starts when the instance is down, the instance remains down when backup completes.
While a backup runs, you cannot access BDDCS Studio, or perform any other operations on your instance.
