Backups
Run a VM backup now
Starts a backup of this VM right away; it works while the VM is running. Old backups are removed only by the retention of a backup job that includes this VM; without a job they are kept (and billed) until the VM is deleted. Returns 409 if a backup of this VM is already running and 429 after 2 backups started in the last 24 hours.
