Sorry, I haven't followed up on this question for a long time due to personal reasons. I think the backup table can be designed as an external table, so that after the backup table is deleted, only the metadata will be deleted without deleting the data files, so that iceberg will not be affected. In certain circumstances, it is necessary to delete the backup table. After the deletion is performed, the data file is also deleted, which makes the iceberg table unavailable.
