Datacenter -> Backup -> Add -> Create Backup Job

when VM deleted it not remove backup of VM.

Backups are not removed when the guest is removed. What is your question exactly?
 
Sorry, I have been test agian, Backup not remove after remove VM, Thank you.
 
I see a problem when backing up multiple VMs, proxmox backs up file name by id, if I delete many vm at the same time, and then I want restore 1 vm how to distinguish the backup of vm when only know the name . Is there a way to create a backup by the name of the VM instead of the id ?
Sory for my english.
 
In the summary tab you can add notes to your VM. If you back it up you can still see the configuration ('Show Configuration') which contains the notes. You'll have to look through all Backups though.
