***vmbackupmanager is a part of [enterprise package](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/enterprise/).

* `/weekly/` - contains weekly backups. Each backup is named as `YYYY-WW`
|
||||
* `/monthly/` - contains monthly backups. Each backup is named as `YYYY-MM`
|

|

The `vmbackupmanager` takes backups every hour if hourly backups are not disabled; otherwise,
|

it defaults to taking backups every 24 hours. You can control the schedule using the `-backupInterval` flag.

For example, if you want to take backups three times per day, set `-backupInterval=8h`.
