Start backing up
Kubernetes
 clusters

To back up your cluster, you must activate the backup protection. You can set a schedule to automatically kickoff backups at recurring intervals.
Verify that you have removed any pods that are not running from the cluster.
Activate the backup protection to start backing up your
Kubernetes
 clusters. If you don't activate the
Backup Schedule
, the backup agent is deployed, but the cluster is not protected and no backup can be created. You can still edit the backup schedule later or do an on-demand backup.
