I had setup AWS Backup some time ago for RDS and, as far as I could tell, it was correct. I was able to restore from it in my tests (from both vaults - one for production with WORM setup, and one non-production vault for resources that are used for development). The backups were also running correctly - I would see them being made each day for the Snapshots and Continuous also looked correct.
Just recently - mid last week - I have not been able to see or access backups. When I view the Backup Vaults as the root user of the account, I no longer see any backups from a certain date forward (Creation Time doesn't go past May 12th). When I look at the specific protected resources, I can see creation times sooner than that, but the backups are all prefixed with rds: rather than awsbackup:. Given that AWS Backup is managing the backups (or should be) this doesn't make sense to me.
Additionally, when I actually go to attempt a restore from the console with ANY of these, I receive an error that says: "Failed to retrieve snapshot."
Again, I am using this as a root user and it did work previously. Very concerned about this. I would appreciate any help or guidance.
