Backup Policy

Backup policies for RDS SQL Server instances can be viewed and modified. SQL Server will start automatic backup in the defined time period per day and the backup is saved for 7 days for free. Automatic backup longer than 7 days will be cleared.

Note: As some CPU and IO resources will be used during backup, please make automatic backup at the low business peak as much as possible

1. Operation Entry

Enter “Backup management” page of “Instance details”, the backup policy of the current instance can be seen.

2. Modify Backup Policy

Click Modify policy to modify each backup policy item in the pop-up dialog box.
Currently, only Automatic backup time can be modified. The system will automatically start the backup operation at any time point within this time period; since the backup time will increase as the data size of the instance increases, it is not guaranteed that the backup operation can be completed within the specified time period.

Enhanced backup mode

Users can enable enhanced backup on the console. After enabling, they can adjust the backup retention duration and switch the backup billing method of the instance.

Precondition

RDS permission has been enabled.
There is billing information and no arrears
Non-intermediate state

Billing Method

After deducting a certain amount of free space from the actual usage of the backup space, the billing is conducted.
