In the Rancher UI, etcd backup and recovery for [Rancher launched Kubernetes clusters]({{< baseurl >}}/rancher/v2.x/en/cluster-provisioning/rke-clusters/) can be easily performed. Snapshots of the etcd database are taken and saved either [locally onto the etcd nodes](#local-backup-target)in or to a [S3 compatible target](#s3-backup-target). The advantages of configuring S3 is that if all etcd nodes are lost, your snapshot is saved remotely and can be used to restore the cluster.

Rancher recommends configuring recurrent `etcd` snapshots for all production clusters. Additonally, one-time snapshots can easily be taken as well.
