Remove ECS local file backup source
This article describes the steps and considerations for removing the ECS local file backup source in the CBR console.​
Tip​
The ECS local file backup service is currently in invitation-only testing. Contact your account manager to be added to the whitelist for access.​
Prerequisites​
  • The target file backup source must exist; otherwise, create the file backup source first.​
  • The target file backup source status must be Available or Error. Backup sources with statuses Removing, Backing up, or Restoring cannot be removed.​
Notes​
  • Removing the backup source also deletes all related restore points, including manual and automatic restore points. Any related automatic backup tasks will stop working.​
  • Deleting the backup source is not allowed if restore points exist. Attempting to delete it will cause an error.​
  • Once the backup source is removed, the backup data cannot be recovered.​
Steps​
  1. Log in to the Cloud backup console.​
  1. In the top navigation bar, select the target region.​
  1. In the left navigation bar, select Public Cloud Backup > Backup Source Management > ECS Local Files.​
  1. On the ECS Local File Backup Source Management page, click Remove in the Actions column to the right of the target backup source.​
  1. In the pop-up Remove Backup Source dialog, click Confirm.​
