Properties

NameTypeDescription
Public Property CompletionWindowMinutes System.Int64

Gets and sets the property CompletionWindowMinutes.

A value in minutes after a backup job is successfully started before it must be completed or it will be canceled by Backup. This value is optional.

Public Property CopyActions System.Collections.Generic.List<Amazon.Backup.Model.CopyAction>

Gets and sets the property CopyActions.

An array of CopyAction objects, which contains the details of the copy operation.

Public Property EnableContinuousBackup System.Boolean

Gets and sets the property EnableContinuousBackup.

Specifies whether Backup creates continuous backups. True causes Backup to create continuous backups capable of point-in-time restore (PITR). False (or not specified) causes Backup to create snapshot backups.

Public Property Lifecycle Amazon.Backup.Model.Lifecycle

Gets and sets the property Lifecycle.

The lifecycle defines when a protected resource is transitioned to cold storage and when it expires. Backup will transition and expire backups automatically according to the lifecycle that you define.

Backups transitioned to cold storage must be stored in cold storage for a minimum of 90 days. Therefore, the “retention” setting must be 90 days greater than the “transition to cold after days” setting. The “transition to cold after days” setting cannot be changed after a backup has been transitioned to cold.

Resource types that are able to be transitioned to cold storage are listed in the "Lifecycle to cold storage" section of the Feature availability by resource table. Backup ignores this expression for other resource types.

This parameter has a maximum value of 100 years (36,500 days).

Public Property RecoveryPointTags System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary<System.String, System.String>

Gets and sets the property RecoveryPointTags.

To help organize your resources, you can assign your own metadata to the resources that you create. Each tag is a key-value pair.

Public Property RuleName System.String

Gets and sets the property RuleName.

A display name for a backup rule. Must contain 1 to 50 alphanumeric or '-_.' characters.

Public Property ScheduleExpression System.String

Gets and sets the property ScheduleExpression.

A CRON expression in UTC specifying when Backup initiates a backup job.

Public Property ScheduleExpressionTimezone System.String

Gets and sets the property ScheduleExpressionTimezone.

This is the timezone in which the schedule expression is set. By default, ScheduleExpressions are in UTC. You can modify this to a specified timezone.

Public Property StartWindowMinutes System.Int64

Gets and sets the property StartWindowMinutes.

A value in minutes after a backup is scheduled before a job will be canceled if it doesn't start successfully. This value is optional. If this value is included, it must be at least 60 minutes to avoid errors.

This parameter has a maximum value of 100 years (52,560,000 minutes).

During the start window, the backup job status remains in CREATED status until it has successfully begun or until the start window time has run out. If within the start window time Backup receives an error that allows the job to be retried, Backup will automatically retry to begin the job at least every 10 minutes until the backup successfully begins (the job status changes to RUNNING) or until the job status changes to EXPIRED (which is expected to occur when the start window time is over).

Public Property TargetBackupVaultName System.String

Gets and sets the property TargetBackupVaultName.

The name of a logical container where backups are stored. Backup vaults are identified by names that are unique to the account used to create them and the Amazon Web Services Region where they are created. They consist of lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens.
