Before you start a backup operation by using File System Backup (FSB), you must specify which pods contain a volume that you want to back up. Velero refers to this process as "discovering" the appropriate pod volumes.

Velero supports two approaches for determining pod volumes. Use the opt-in or the opt-out approach to allow Velero to decide between an FSB, a volume snapshot, or a Data Mover backup.

* *Opt-in approach*: The opt-in approach requires that you actively indicate that you want to include - _opt-in_ - a volume in a backup. You do this by labelling each pod that contains a volume to be backed up with the name of the volume. When Velero finds a persistent volume (PV), it checks the pod that mounted the volume. If the pod is labelled with the name of the volume, Velero backs up the pod.

* *Opt-out approach*: With the opt-out approach, you must actively specify that you want to exclude a volume from a backup. You do this by labelling each pod that contains a volume you do not want to back up with the name of the volume. When Velero finds a PV, it checks the pod that mounted the volume. If the pod is labelled with the volume's name, Velero does not back up the pod.

* *Opt-in approach*: With the opt-in approach, volumes are backed up using snapshot or Data Mover by default. FSB is used on specific volumes that are opted-in by annotations.
