YaST System Backup has disappeared

Since I upgraded to Leap 15, System Backup has been missing from my YaST Control Center, and yast -l does not list anything that looks like a backup. Is this normal? If so, what is the new method of backing up the system? If not, how do I get the module back?

The system backup was pleasantly convenient the last time my disk crashed.

There are a number of good utilities around that fulfill the same functions, but since you mentioned YaST, I recommend having a look at yast2-rear (a utility for configuring backup using Relax and Recover)…
