All backups\n from that volume go to that vault.\n\n- NetApp Volumes lets you create scheduled backups by assigning\n a backup policy to a volume, or you can create manual backups of a volume\n using the Google Cloud console, Google Cloud CLI, or API.\n\nCreate a manual backup\n----------------------\n\nThere are two ways to create a manual backup of an existing volume:\n\n- Volume-centric workflow\n\n- Backup-centric workflow\n\n### Volume-centric workflow\n\n1. Go to **NetApp Volumes** page in the Google Cloud console.\n\n [Go to NetApp Volumes](https://console.cloud.google.com/netapp/volumes)\n2. Under **Storage** , click **Volumes**.\n\n3. In the **Volumes** page, select the volume you want to create a backup for to\n expand its details.\n\n4. In the volume details page, click the **Backups** tab.\n\n5. Click **Create backup**.\n\n6. In the **Backup name** field, enter a name for the backup. The name you\n choose must be unique to the region, contain lowercase letters, numbers, and\n hyphens. The name cannot be changed after the backup has been created.\n\n7. Optional: in the **Description** field, enter a description for the backup.\n\n8. Under **Backup source**, choose a source to backup your data from:\n\n - **Volume's current state**: back up from the current state of a volume.\n\n - **Existing snapshot**: back up from an existing snapshot.\n\n Use the **Snapshot** drop-down menu to select a previously created\n snapshot. If no snapshots have been taken on the volume, the volume's\n current state radio button is selected by default.\n9. Under **Backup location** , use the **Backup vault** drop-down menu to\n select a location to store your backups.\n\n | **Note:** For cross-region backup vaults, you must specify a source vault.\n10. Optional: Under the **Labels** section, click **Add label** to enter labels\n for reporting and querying purposes.\n\n11. Click **Create**.\n\n### Backup-centric workflow\n\n### Console\n\n1. Go to **NetApp Volumes** page in the Google Cloud console.\n\n [Go to NetApp Volumes](https://console.cloud.google.com/netapp/volumes)\n2. Under **Data protection** , click **Backups**.\n\n3. In the **Backups** page, click **Create**.\n\n4. In the **Backup name** field, enter a name for your backup. The name must\n be unique to the region, contain lowercase letters, numbers, hyphens, and\n start with a letter. Your choice is permanent.\n\n5. Optional: In the **Description** field, enter a description for the\n backup.\n\n6. Under **Volume details** , click **Select volume** to select a volume to\n be backed up.\n\n7. From the volumes list, select the volume you want to back up and click\n **Select**.\n\n8. Under **Backup source**, select a source for your backups:\n\n - **Volume's current state**: back up from the current state of a volume.\n\n - **Existing snapshot**: back up from an existing snapshot.\n\n9. Under **Backup location** , use the **Backup vault** drop-down menu to\n select a backup location.\n\n | **Note:** For cross-region backup vaults, you must specify a source vault.\n10. Optional: under **Labels** , click **Add label** to enter labels for\n reporting and querying purposes.\n\n11. Click **Create**.\n\n### gcloud\n\nUse the following instructions to create a backup using\nGoogle Cloud CLI:\n\nRun the following command to create a backup:\n\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\n```bash\n gcloud netapp backup-vaults backups create BACKUP_NAME \n\n --location=LOCATION \n\n --backup-vault=BACKUP_VAULT \n\n --description=DESCRIPTION \n\n --source-volume=SOURCE_VOLUME \n\n --source-snapshot=SOURCE_SNAPSHOT \n\n --labels=foo=bar\n \n```\n\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\nReplace the following information:\n\n- \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eBACKUP_NAME\u003c/var\u003e: the name of your new backup.\n\n- \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eLOCATION\u003c/var\u003e: the location in which you want to\n create the vault.\n\n- \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eBACKUP_VAULT\u003c/var\u003e: the name of the backup vault.\n\n- \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eDESCRIPTION\u003c/var\u003e: the description for the backup.\n\n- \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eSOURCE_VOLUME\u003c/var\u003e: the resource name of the volume to\n back up.\n\n- \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eSOURCE_SNAPSHOT\u003c/var\u003e: the resource name of the snapshot\n you want to use to create the backup. This flag is optional.\n\nFor more options, see [Google Cloud SDK documentation for NetApp Volumes](/sdk/gcloud/reference/netapp/backup-vaults/backups).\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\n[Create a new volume from an existing backup](/netapp/volumes/docs/protect-data/create-volume-from-backup)."]]
