This section describes how to add a backup to your VM

The platform uses backup systems, such as Veeam or Networker, and it creates backups for VMs that are deployed on the hypervisor.

To configure your VM backup by selecting the backup policy and the disks, do these steps:

...

  1. Edit the VM and go to Backup → Backup policies.

  4. If required, enter backup frequency, or date and/or time
    (warning) Backup times: Abiquo uses ISO 8601 and you should check the time standard used in each datacenter with the datacenter owner. 
    Time zones in ISO 8601 are represented as local time (with the location unspecified), as UTC, or as an offset from UTC

  5. If required, select disks

    • Note: Some backup systems will ignore your disk selection and create a backup of all disks. Check your cloud provider's documentation for more information
