Managing volumes in backup plans

You can manage compute volumes that you want to back up by adding them to or removing them from your backup plans. After removing a volume from a backup plan, all backups that have been already created remain intact.

Prerequisites

In the Manage volumes window, select volumes that you want to back up, and then click Save.
