Backing up applications

You create backup storage locations and polices as a prerequisite to backup. Assign the policies to applications such that backups run based on the defined policy schedule.

Only one backup per policy or application combination allowed at a time. Redundant backups are canceled.

IBM Fusion Backup & restore (preview) supports block level incremental backups, which detect change blocks and processes only the changes since the last snapshot. It is also applicable for backups of OpenShift® Container Platform virtualization VMs using block volumes.
