Configure the NFS Server on the globals.yaml.gotmpl File

  1. Enable the fs section for datastores to back up using the NFS server. See globals.yaml.gotmpl file.
    Elasticsearch
    CODE 
    # Backup config for datastores
backup:
  elasticsearch:
    fs:
      enabled: true
      storage: 5Gi
    PostgreSQL
    CODE 
    # Backup config for datastores
backup:
  postgresql:
    fs:
      enabled: true
      repoName: repo3
      storage: 5Gi
    MySQL
    CODE 
    # Backup config for datastores
backup:
  mysql:
    fs:
      enabled: true
      repoName: repo3
      storage: 5Gi
  2. (Optional) Create a repository to back up the data in the NFS server.
    Note:

    • In a Standard Deployment, Elasticsearch data is stored within the Virtual Appliance. Therefore, the Elasticsearch backup and restore steps are applicable only to the Standard deployment.

    • You can create a repository only for the Elasticsearch backup.

      By default, the globals.yaml.gotmpl file uses the repo3 repository for MySQL and PostgreSQL.

    CODE 
    appdcli run es_backup create-fs-repo repo3
  3. Run the following command to sync the changes across nodes:
    CODE 
    appdcli sync appd <profile>
