# Modifying the Content in a Content Group for Alibaba Cloud Object Storage Service (OSS)

You can modify the backup content of an existing content group.

Considerations for overlapping content

- If you define overlapping content in multiple subclients within the same backup set, then only one subclient backs up that content. Other subclients do not back up the content. If backup is disabled then it wont be backed up.

- The subclient that contains the parent folder backs up all the files and folders under the parent folder. However, if any of the child folders are specified as content in another subclient, then the child folder is automatically filtered when the backup runs.

   The Object storage instances page appears.
