Back Up a Block Volume Manually

To back up a block volume manually:

  1. Sign in to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console.
  2. Open the navigation menu and click Storage. Under Block Storage, click Block Volumes.
  3. At the far right of the row for the block volume for which you want to create a backup, click Actions icon and select Create Manual Backup.
  4. In the Create Block Volume Backup dialog, enter a name for the backup and select the backup type, either Full or Incremental.
