Is all the D365 CE Instance backup's are deleted once the live instance is deleted?

Posted on by 20

Hello Everyone,

  1. If an instance is deleted, does all the backup for that instance also get deleted? As we all know the system backup can be available until 28 days, Is this only for live instances (prod/sandbox) in admin or non-admin mode?
  2. If one has to restore the deleted instance backup to new instance how can this be done, I don't see any deleted instance names in the backup and restore tab's instance dropdown control. Do we need a support ticket?

    Hello Adrian Begovich,

    My question is regarding, what if the backup is taken and the whole instance is deleted. How can we restore then?

    Thanks

    Hi Dilli Babu,

    System backups are retained for up to 28 days. You can see when your backups will expire by looking at the expiry date for the backup on the Backup & Restore tab of the Dynamics 365 Administration Center.

    You can restore a backup by clicking the Restore button, picking a target sandbox instance, and going through the restoration process.
