Bicep example of backupInstance doesn't configure containersList

[ngbrown]

This quickstart to backup a storage account is not enough and will not backup any configured containers. Does it need to include policyParameters.backupDatasourceParametersList[].containersList inside the policyInfo? I can't find any documentation on this.

Lines 97 to 119 in 240b846

	resource backupInstance 'Microsoft.DataProtection/backupvaults/backupInstances@2021-01-01' = {
	parent: backupVault
	name: storageAccountName
	properties: {
	objectType: 'BackupInstance'
	dataSourceInfo: {
	objectType: 'Datasource'

Yes, you need to include the policyParameters.backupDatasourceParametersList[].containersList inside the policyInfo to back up any configured containers in your storage account. This is because the default backup policy for storage accounts only backs up the root container.

The policyParameters.backupDatasourceParametersList[].containersList property is a list of container names that you want to back up. If you leave this property empty, the backup policy will not back up any containers.

@ngbrown Updated the same template to support vaulted backup (which takes container list as input). Let me know if that is working well for you.
