Creating Amazon EC2 Backup Jobs

With NAKIVO Backup & Replication, you can back up Amazon EC2 instances by creating a backup job that specifies which instances should be backed up, where the backups should be located, how often the backup should occur, and what backup options should be used. To create a backup job, click the plus Create button in the Jobs menu, and then click Backup for Amazon EC2.

Note
You must first deploy a Transporter in Amazon EC2. Refer to Deploying Transporters in Amazon EC2.
