Client

class BackupGateway.Client

A low-level client representing AWS Backup Gateway

Backup gateway connects Backup to your hypervisor, so you can create, store, and restore backups of your virtual machines (VMs) anywhere, whether on-premises or in the VMware Cloud (VMC) on Amazon Web Services.

Add on-premises resources by connecting to a hypervisor through a gateway. Backup will automatically discover the resources in your hypervisor.

Use Backup to assign virtual or on-premises resources to a backup plan, or run on-demand backups. Once you have backed up your resources, you can view them and restore them like any resource supported by Backup.

To download the Amazon Web Services software to get started, navigate to the Backup console, choose Gateways , then choose Create gateway .

import boto3

client = boto3.client('backup-gateway')

These are the available methods:

associate_gateway_to_server(**kwargs)

Associates a backup gateway with your server. After you complete the association process, you can back up and restore your VMs through the gateway.

        • GatewayType (string) --

          The type of the gateway.

        • HypervisorId (string) --

          The hypervisor ID of the gateway.

class BackupGateway.Paginator.ListHypervisors
paginator = client.get_paginator('list_hypervisors')
paginate(**kwargs)

Creates an iterator that will paginate through responses from BackupGateway.Client.list_hypervisors().

Request Syntax

response_iterator = paginator.paginate(
    PaginationConfig={
        'MaxItems': 123,
        'PageSize': 123,
        'StartingToken': 'string'
    }
)
Parameters
PaginationConfig (dict) --

A dictionary that provides parameters to control pagination.

  • MaxItems (integer) --

    The total number of items to return. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified in max-items then a NextToken will be provided in the output that you can use to resume pagination.

  • PageSize (integer) --

    The size of each page.

  • StartingToken (string) --

    A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previous response.

        • HypervisorArn (string) --

          The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the hypervisor.

        • KmsKeyArn (string) --

          The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Key Management Service used to encrypt the hypervisor.

        • Name (string) --

          The name of the hypervisor.

        • State (string) --

          The state of the hypervisor.
