A data management system may support a configuration backup of a first backup system that manages backup procedures for data of a host environment that is separate from the first backup system. The data management system may transmit, to the first backup system, a request to generate the configuration backup that includes information for the one or more backup procedures managed by the first backup system. The data management system may cause the configuration backup to be stored in a separate storage location. In response to first backup system failure, the data management system may transmit, to a second backup system, a request to apply one or more configurations for the first backup system to the second backup system based on the stored configuration backup for the first backup system.
