Description
Use this command to create a BackupUnit under a particular contract. You need to specify the name, email and password for the new BackupUnit.
Notes:
The name assigned to the BackupUnit will be concatenated with the contract number to create the login name for the backup system. The name may NOT be changed after creation.
The password set here is used along with the login name described above to register the backup agent with the backup system. When setting the password, please make a note of it, as the value cannot be retrieved using the Cloud API.
The e-mail address supplied here does NOT have to be the same as your Cloud API username. This e-mail address will receive service reports from the backup system.
To login to backup agent, please use https://dcd.ionos.com/latest/ and access BackupUnit Console or use https://backup.ionos.com
