BootVolumeBackup

A point-in-time copy of a boot volume that can then be used to create a new boot volume or recover a boot volume. For more information, see [Overview of Boot Volume Backups](/iaas/Content/Block/Concepts/bootvolumebackups.htm) To use any of the API operations, you must be authorized in an IAM policy. If you're not authorized, talk to an administrator. If you're an administrator who needs to write policies to give users access, see [Getting Started with Policies](/iaas/Content/Identity/Concepts/policygetstarted.htm). **Warning:** Oracle recommends that you avoid using any confidential information when you supply string values using the API.

Name Type Description
bootVolumeId string The OCID of the boot volume.
compartmentId string The OCID of the compartment that contains the boot volume backup.
definedTags object Defined tags for this resource. Each key is predefined and scoped to a namespace. For more information, see [Resource Tags](/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/resourcetags.htm). Example: `{"Operations": {
displayName string A user-friendly name. Does not have to be unique, and it's changeable. Avoid entering confidential information.
expirationTime string The date and time the volume backup will expire and be automatically deleted. Format defined by [RFC3339](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3339). This parameter will always be present for backups that w
freeformTags object Free-form tags for this resource. Each tag is a simple key-value pair with no predefined name, type, or namespace. For more information, see [Resource Tags](/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/resourcetags
id string The OCID of the boot volume backup.
imageId string The image OCID used to create the boot volume the backup is taken from.
isIndefiniteRetentionEnabled boolean feature that preserves backup data from modification or deletion to ensure it remains available for legal or regulatory investigations or litigation, regardless of standard retention policies. This is
isPreventDeletionEnabled boolean Prevent backups from being deleted during the configured retention period. This is an optional field. If it is not specified, it is set to null, prevent deletion will not be applied to the backups.
isRetentionLockEnabled boolean feature that prevents deletion or alteration of backup data for a specified period to ensure data protection and regulatory compliance. This is an optional field. If it is not specified, it is set to
kmsKeyId string The OCID of the Vault service master encryption assigned to the boot volume backup. For more information about the Vault service and encryption keys, see [Overview of Vault service](/iaas/Content/KeyM
lifecycleState string The current state of a boot volume backup.
retentionPeriod object
sizeInGBs integer The size of the boot volume, in GBs.
sourceBootVolumeBackupId string The OCID of the source boot volume backup.
sourceType string Specifies whether the backup was created manually, or via scheduled backup policy.
timeCreated string The date and time the boot volume backup was created. This is the time the actual point-in-time image of the volume data was taken. Format defined by [RFC3339](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3339).
timeRequestReceived string The date and time the request to create the boot volume backup was received. Format defined by [RFC3339](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3339).
timeRetentionExpiresAt string The date and time when a backup’s retention period ends and it is set to expire. This is an optional field. If it is not specified, it is set to null, no retention period will be applied to the backup
type string The type of a volume backup.
uniqueSizeInGBs integer The size used by the backup, in GBs. It is typically smaller than sizeInGBs, depending on the space consumed on the boot volume and whether the backup is full or incremental.
volumeGroupBackupId string The OCID of the volume group backup associated with the backup. This is an optional field. If it is not present in the response, the backup does not belong to a volume group.
