VolumeBackup API

For details on how to use auto scaling, see /sdk/guides/volume_backup (NEEDS TO BE DONE).

The VolumeBackup Class

The VBS high-level interface is available through the volume_backup member of a Connection object. The volume_backup member will only be added if the otcextensions.sdk.register_otc_extensions(conn) method is called.

The Backup itself is an OpenStack entity and supported natively as block_storage.Backup.
