Enable BlueXP backup and recovery (v3)

POST /account/{accountId}/providers/cloudmanager_cbs/api/v3/backup/working-environment/{workingEnvironmentId}

Enables BlueXP backup and recovery for a specific working environment.The V3 version of the API endpoint enables BlueXP backup and recovery on Cloud Volumes ONTAP on AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and on-premises ONTAP systems. It checks whether an S3 cloud storage bucket is associated with an account. If a bucket does not exist, it creates a bucket. It creates a backup folder on the S3 cloud object storage bucket in the specified cloud provider or in StorageGRID. It is possible to tier old backup files to archival storage in the required cloud provider. This feature is supported with AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and StorageGRID. Restoring volumes from backup objects that reside in archival storage also requires that the destination cluster is running ONTAP 9.10.1 or later.

You can enable DataLock and Ransomware protection beginning with ONTAP 9.11.1 and later (supported for AWS, Azure, and StorageGRID). This is applicable only for new backup activation. Interoperability with archival policy is not supported. For AWS, DataLock and Ransomware Protection can be enabled in the "GOVERNANCE" mode or "COMPLIANCE" mode. For Azure, DataLock and Ransomware Protection can be enabled in the "UNLOCKED" mode or "LOCKED" mode.

Token usage: BlueXP user token.
