Remarks

Allows the device owner or profile owner to enable or disable the backup service.

Each user has its own backup service which manages the backup and restore mechanisms in that user. Disabling the backup service will prevent data from being backed up or restored.

Device owner calls this API to control backup services across all users on the device. Profile owner can use this API to enable or disable the profile's backup service. However, for a managed profile its backup functionality is only enabled if both the device owner and the profile owner have enabled the backup service.

By default, backup service is disabled on a device with device owner, and within a managed profile.
