<div class="paragraph">
<p>BlueXP backup and recovery now enables you to implement a 3-2-1 strategy where you can have 3 copies of your source data on 2 different storage systems along with 1 copy in the cloud. After activation, you&#8217;ll have a:</p>

</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This new functionality also applies to recovery operations. You can perform restore operations from a Snapshot copy, from a replicated volume, or from a backup file in the cloud. This gives you the flexibility to choose the backup file that meets your recovery requirements, including cost and speed of recovery.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Note that this new functionality and user interface is supported only for clusters running ONTAP 9.8 or greater. If your cluster has an earlier version of software, you can continue using the previous version of BlueXP backup and recovery. However, we recommend that you upgrade to a supported version of ONTAP to get the newest features and functionality. To continue using the older version of the software, follow these steps:</p>

<div class="paragraph">
<p>When you create backup files in object storage, by default, the backup and recovery service will create the buckets in object storage for you. You can create the buckets yourself if you want to use a certain name or assign special properties. If you want to create your own bucket, you must create it before starting the activation wizard. <a href="https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/bluexp-backup-recovery/concept-protection-journey.html#do-you-want-to-create-your-own-object-storage-container">Learn how to create your object storage buckets</a>.</p>

This new functionality automatically backs up critical BlueXP backup and recovery data to a bucket on your connected StorageGRID system so that you can restore this data onto a new Connector if necessary. <a href="https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/bluexp-backup-recovery/reference-backup-cbs-db-in-dark-site.html">Learn more</a></p>
