[RFE] Backup and restore a single projects to its original state
Last modified: 2018-10-10 09:06:59 EDT
Needing Back up and Restore procedures/feature to restore a single project. -Looking for a feature that would make it easy to restore a whole project to its original state if deleted. - Either restoring from past ectd backups or from a separate back up of the project. Currently `oc export` requires addition steps to restore a project back to its original state.
What steps do you considered required above and beyond oc export?
Using just `oc export` will not work as a back up when dealing objects that reference images that have been build and pushed the internal registry. We are looking for a feature that would allow a system admin to backup an existing project and restore it under a different namespace or different environment.
Using wordpress/mysql as an example, the current workflow for project backup and restore goes something like this: - create project - create pvc for mysql - create pvc for wordpress - deploy mysql pod - deploy wordpress pod - export mysql pod yaml - (update mysql-pod.yaml with the passwords/usernames from the exported pod yaml) - delete project - create second project - create new pvc for mysql - create new pvc for wordpress - find/verify the new mysql pv - copy everything from the old mysql pv to the new mysql pv - deploy previously exported mysql pod yaml - deploy wordpress pod More at: https://github.com/brennv/wordpress-ex
