Could you clarify whether expired jobs get stopped by AWS?
Your two statements above seem contradictory
- The EXPIRED status also indicates that there's a running job for the same resource.
- If the data transfer for the backup doesn't complete during the CompleteWithin time, then AWS Backup stops the backup and shows the EXPIRED status.
Also, this is what's written in the info tip popup beside "Complete within" dropdown when you edit the backup rule under "Backup window" section:
If the data transfer for backing up your resource does not complete during this period of time, AWS Backup will display the status Expired. Otherwise, the data transfer portion of your backup job completed successfully. However, for particularly large backups, the rest of the backup process might take up to several days to complete and display the status Completed.
It seems to suggest the "expired" status is informational, the job will run till completion or failure and the status will change to a final status.

Thank you for your comment. We'll review and update the Knowledge Center article as needed.
I want to clarify the behavior in more detail:
Let's say you have a scheduled backup "A" that is currently running, and a scheduled backup "B" is scheduled to start at 2:00 PM with a 1-hour completion window.
At2:00 PM, scheduled backup "A" is still running. What happens is that scheduled backup "B" will not start immediately — it will wait for scheduled backup "A" to complete.
When scheduled backup "A" completes — let's say at 2:05 PM — scheduled backup "B" will then start. If it completes within its scheduled window, it will succeed. If it does not complete within the scheduled window, it will fail with the status EXPIRED and the following error:
"Backup job failed because there was a running job for the same resource"
