You will find it under Backup Storage in your OVH control panel. I used "Forgotten your password" function to get the username and login info.
Then just use that info in your FTP software or in etc rsync or whatever to upload your files from your server.
Remember that you will only have access to the FTP storage from OVH servers.
What kind of OS do you run, and what are you taking backup of?
Follow the screenshot : http://prntscr.com/emrwu2
Use "Forgetten password" to get the password
Once you got the password
Name == FTP hostname
ID== FTP username
You can use tar or zip or bzip to compress and send to FTP. Meanwhile you can run a cron to schedule the compressed backup to FTP

I use Debian as a OS and LFTP as client
To be on the safe side id like to backup The whole system (Excluding 2 partition mounted on the Home dir)
Has no one an idea how to backup The whole system partition
You could do a dd of the partition, I use NFS with my backup storage but that's a bit harder to setup
