public CreateBackupEncryptionConfig EncryptionConfig { get; set; }
Optional. The encryption configuration that will be used to encrypt the
backup. If this field is not specified, the backup will use the same
encryption configuration as the database.
Identifier. Output only for the
[CreateBackupSchedule][DatabaseAdmin.CreateBackupSchededule] operation.
Required for the
[UpdateBackupSchedule][google.spanner.admin.database.v1.DatabaseAdmin.UpdateBackupSchedule]
operation. A globally unique identifier for the backup schedule which
cannot be changed. Values are of the form
projects/<project>/instances/<instance>/databases/<database>/backupSchedules/[a-z][a-z0-9_\-]*[a-z0-9]
The final segment of the name must be between 2 and 60 characters in
length.
Optional. The retention duration of a backup that must be at least 6 hours
and at most 366 days. The backup is eligible to be automatically deleted
once the retention period has elapsed.
Output only. The timestamp at which the schedule was last updated.
If the schedule has never been updated, this field contains the timestamp
when the schedule was first created.
