Stop, Restart, or Terminate a Backup
On this page
Cloud Manager will no longer support Automation, Backup, and Monitoring for MongoDB 3.6 and 4.0 after August 30th, 2024. Please upgrade your MongoDB deployment or migrate to Atlas.
When you stop backups for a replica set or sharded cluster Cloud Manager stops taking new snapshots but retains existing snapshots until their listed expiration date.
If you later restart backups for replica set or cluster, Cloud Manager might perform an inital sync, depending on how much time has elapsed.
If you terminate a backup, Cloud Manager immediately deletes all the backup's snapshots.
Stop Backup for a Deployment
Restart Backup for a Deployment
Terminate a Deployment's Backups
Warning
Terminating a backup triggers a full backup
If you terminate a backup, Cloud Manager immediately deletes the backup's snapshots. The next backup job runs as a full backup rather than an incremental backup.
