If you restore a server, then it always results in a creation of a net new server that has been restored using original server's backups. The old backup from the original server is not copied over to the newly restored server and it remains with the original server. However, for the newly created server the first snapshot backup is scheduled immediately after a server is created and the service ensures daily automated backups are taken and stored as per configured server retention period.

Azure Database for MySQL flexible server provides up to 100% of your provisioned server storage as backup storage at no added cost. Any more backup storage used is charged in GB per month as per the [pricing model](https://azure.microsoft.com/pricing/details/mysql/server/). Backup storage billing is also governed by the backup retention period selected and backup redundancy option chosen, apart from the transactional activity on the server, which impacts the total backup storage used directly.
