Questa pagina descrive come eseguire il backup delle macchine virtuali (VM) rispettando i principi di backup e ripristino isolati di Google Distributed Cloud (GDC).
Contiene anche istruzioni su come visualizzare un elenco di backup delle VM ed eliminare i backup delle VM esistenti.
Prima di iniziare
Per eseguire il backup delle VM, devi disporre di quanto segue:
Amministratore VirtualMachine progetto: gestisce le VM nello spazio dei nomi del progetto. Chiedi all'amministratore IAM del progetto di concederti il ruolo Project VirtualMachine Admin (project-vm-admin).
Backup Creator: crea backup manuali ed esegue ripristini. Chiedi all'amministratore IAM del progetto di concederti il ruolo Autore backup (backup-creator).
Visualizzatore progetto: ha accesso in sola lettura a tutte le risorse all'interno degli spazi dei nomi del progetto. Chiedi all'amministratore IAM del progetto di concederti il ruolo Visualizzatore progetto (project-viewer).
Esegui manualmente il backup delle VM
Esegui il backup delle VM utilizzando la console GDC o l'API.
Console
Accedi alla console GDC.
Nel menu di navigazione, fai clic su Backup per le macchine virtuali.
Seleziona un progetto.
Fai clic sulla scheda Backup.
Fai clic su Crea un backup.
Nel campo dell'istanza VM di origine, seleziona la VM di cui vuoi eseguire il backup.
Inserisci un nome per il backup.
Nel campo Piano di backup, seleziona il piano di backup per cui vuoi
creare un backup.
Fai clic su Crea.
API
Emetti una richiesta di backup della macchina virtuale per avviare un backup:

A manual backup must reference an existing backup plan for the backup configuration.\n- The necessary identity and access roles:\n\n - Project VirtualMachine Admin: manages VMs in the project namespace. Ask your Project IAM Admin to grant you the Project VirtualMachine Admin (`project-vm-admin`) role.\n - Backup Creator: creates manual backups and restores. Ask your Project IAM Admin to grant you the Backup Creator (`backup-creator`) role.\n - Project Viewer: has read-only access to all resources within project namespaces. Ask your Project IAM Admin to grant you the Project Viewer (`project-viewer`) role.\n\nManually back up VMs\n--------------------\n\nBack up VMs using either the GDC console or the API. \n\n### Console\n\n1.
