If you are not familiar with AWS Backup, check out my article Getting Started with AWS Backup.
This assumes you have already configured the aws command line tool. If not, check out my article on Getting Started with the AWS CLI.
The Backup Vault is where your backups will be stored. The aws backup list-backup-vaults command can be used to list your Backup Vaults.
~]$ aws backup list-backup-vaults
{
"BackupVaultList": [
{
"BackupVaultName": "Default",
"BackupVaultArn": "arn:aws:backup:us-east-1:123456789012:backup-vault:Default",
"CreationDate": "2024-05-27T05:34:10.904000+00:00",
"EncryptionKeyArn": "arn:aws:kms:us-east-1:123456789012:key/2b32ca5b-ccaf-493b-b95f-d780d8e65eda",
"CreatorRequestId": "Default",
"NumberOfRecoveryPoints": 0,

}
]
}
