Creates a new backup resource and returns the information the caller needs to back up an on-premises Oracle Database to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

| Key | Datatype | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
opc-retry-token | string | A token that uniquely identifies a request so it can be retried in case of a timeout or | |
| server error without risk of executing that same action again. Retry tokens expire after 24 | |||
| hours, but can be invalidated before then due to conflicting operations (for example, if a resource | |||
| has been deleted and purged from the system, then a retry of the original creation request | |||
| may be rejected). | |||
