AdvancedBackupSetting

The backup options for each resource type.

Contents

BackupOptions

Specifies the backup option for a selected resource. This option is available for Windows VSS backup jobs and S3 backups.

Valid values:

Set to "WindowsVSS":"enabled" to enable the WindowsVSS backup option and create a Windows VSS backup.

Set to "WindowsVSS":"disabled" to create a regular backup. The WindowsVSS option is not enabled by default.

For S3 backups, set to "S3BackupACLs":"disabled" to exclude ACLs from the backup, or "S3BackupObjectTags":"disabled" to exclude object tags from the backup. By default, both ACLs and object tags are included in S3 backups.

If you specify an invalid option, you get an InvalidParameterValueException exception.

For more information about Windows VSS backups, see Creating a VSS-Enabled Windows Backup.
