A backup policy can be suspended so that it does not perform any new backup operations against the associated volumes. This action enables you to temporarily suspend backups if existing backups need to be maintained but not retired because of versioning.

Backups on a destination volume are only supported for manually created snapshots. To take backups of a destination volume, create a snapshot on the source volume then wait for the snapshot to be replicated to the destination volume. From the destination volume, you can select the snapshot for backup, where you can select this snapshot for backup. Scheduled backups on a destination volume aren't supported.
