Dynamics 365 Instance Backup with unclear REST Operation Status

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 7

Hi,

I am using the Microsoft.Xrm.OnlineManagementAPI with Powershell.
What I want to do is create a Instance Backup for my dynamics 365 Instance which I can successfully do using the Backup-CrmInstance Command (docs.microsoft.com/.../backup-crminstance

This Operation gives me a OperationID to check the current status of the operation. After about 1 minute after starting the backup, I get the status "succeeded".
When I check inside the Administration Center the backup is still in the status "creating". After another 15 minutes the status in the Admin Center also changes to Available.

What does the "succeeded" in the backup operation exactly mean and when is my backup truly finished?

After the backup I want to publish a new customization to the Instance. Do I have to wait until the backup becomes available in the Admin Center or did it already got a copy of the Instance to create a backup when it prompts me with the "succeeded" status in the powershell?
