Deprecated Documentation
This document is deprecated and no longer supported. For accurate, up-to-date information, please refer to the documentation for the latest version of Trilio.
A high-level user process chart for Backup and Recovery operations within Trilio are provided below.
Quick definitions of the CRDs are provided below. For more detailed information and examples, please refer to the CRD section
Target - Location where backup data is stored - can be either NFS or S3 compatible storage
Policy - Retention policy and Scheduling policy definition for backups
Backup Plan - Definition of 'what', 'where', 'to' and 'how 'of the backup
Backup - Triggers the backup operation
Restore - Triggers the restore operation
Define and create the target object to store backup data Trilio will create and validate that the target storage can be reached and written to.
Define and create policies for retention and scheduling of backups Trilio will validate the policies defined
Define and create a backup plan that references the following:
Application to backup - label/helm/operator
Scheduling Policy
Retention Policy
Target to where the data should be backed up Trilio will validate the Backup Plan and ensure it can be backed up without any issuses.
Define and apply the Backup CR that references the Backup Trilio will create either a full or incremental backup as defined by the user of the metadata and data of the application.
The restore process is the inverse of the backup process.
Define and apply the Restore CR which references the backup CR object created in the step 4 of the Backup process. For migration scenarios, provide the location (within the target) since the backup object is not visible at the target cluster. Trilio will restore the application into the namespace specified and upon a successful restore the application is ready to be used.
