Backups for Azure File Storage

You can back up the object storage repositories with full, incremental, or synthetic full backups.

You can back up the metadata of object repositories with full and incremental backups.

From FR 11.23, by default, the Azure File Share backup backs up locked files using Azure file share snapshot . You can also choose to back up all files using Azure file share snapshot, see Backing Up All Files with Azure File Share Snapshot.

Note

You can back up the metadata at the folder level for Azure File Share.

Data You Cannot Back Up

  • Files and folders without a name.

  • Files and folders that contain a forward slash ("/") in their names.

  • NFS file shares in an Azure premium storage account because NFS file shares do not support REST APIs.

    To back up NFS file shares in an Azure premium storage account, see Azure Files.
