On EonOne, you can set up regular automatic backup plans to ensure that virtual machine data is al-ways up to date, or perform manual backup of virtual machines.

• Automatic backup: Back up the disks, configurations, and associated K8S resources of the vir-tual machine including related PVCs and ConfigMaps and store them in a remote S3-compatible object storage to facilitate disaster recovery and data protection.
• Manual backup: In addition to backing up the entire data of the virtual machine, you can include or exclude specific resources and data.
