Cloud Config:The level-1 backup retention period for a PolarDB cluster meets the specified requirement

Last Updated:Jun 18, 2026

Checks whether the level-1 backup retention period of a PolarDB cluster meets or exceeds the specified number of days.

Scenarios

Retaining level-1 backups for an appropriate number of days supports data restoration and disaster recovery while helping control backup storage costs.

Risk level

Default risk level: Medium.

You can change the risk level of this rule as needed.

Detection logic

  • A PolarDB cluster is considered compliant if its level-1 backup retention period is greater than or equal to the specified number of days.

  • A PolarDB cluster is considered non-compliant if level-1 backup is disabled, or if level-1 backup is enabled but the retention period is less than the specified number of days.
