It holds your VM templates, categories, networking and microsegmentation, disaster recovery configuration, licensing, Kubernetes platform, and a long list of service configurations that took real time to build. If a natural disaster, a power failure, or a bad day in the datacenter takes that instance down, you do not just lose a dashboard. You lose the control plane that ties everything together. That is the problem Prism Central Backup and Restore (PCBR) is built to solve, and this post covers the half of the story that keeps you out of trouble in the first place: understanding what PCBR protects and configuring your backups the right way.</p>
