Data Management:Modify backup objects

Last Updated:Feb 25, 2025

Data Disaster Recovery allows you to modify the backup objects based on your business requirements.

Usage notes

If you back up an entire database, additional database objects such as backup indexes and stored procedures are also backed up by Data Disaster Recovery. The objects that can be backed up vary based on the database engine. For more information, see Supported database types and features or Configure a backup schedule and restore data.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the DMS console V5.0.

  2. In the top navigation bar, choose Security and Specifications (DBS) > Disaster Recovery for Data (DBS) > Backup Plan.

    Note

    If you use the DMS console in simple mode, move the pointer over the 2023-01-28_15-57-17.png icon in the upper-left corner of the DMS console and choose All Features > Security and Specifications (DBS) > Disaster Recovery for Data (DBS) > Backup Plan.

  3. Find the backup schedule for which you want to modify backup objects and click Manage in the Actions column. The Configure Task page appears.

  4. In the Basic Information section, click Edit Backup Objects.

  6. In the Start Full Data Backup message, click OK or Close.

    • If you click OK, a full backup task starts in about 1 minute to back up the objects that are specified in the backup schedule. To minimize the impact on the backup source database, we recommend that you perform this operation during off-peak hours.

    • If you click Close, the modified configurations are saved, but the system does not immediately perform a full backup. The system performs a full backup based on the latest configurations only when a new full backup task is scheduled the next time.
