YAML examples for Trilio Custom Resource Definitions

TrilioVaultManager

TrilioVaultManager CRD, owned by Trilio Operator for Upstream/Non-Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM) based environments, manages the lifecycle of Trilio for Kubernetes Application.

The following snippet provides an example on how to use the TrilioVaultManager CRD.

The version number provided below is only for illustrative purposes. Please refer to the Compatibility Matrix to find the latest version to use.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: TrilioVaultManager
metadata:
  labels:
    triliovault: triliovault
  name: trilio-app
spec:
  trilioVaultAppVersion: 0.2.5
  helmVersion:
    version: v3
    tillerNamespace: "kube-system"
  applicationScope: Namespaced
  restoreNamespaces: ["kube-system", "default", "restoreinme", "restore-namespace", "restore"]
  resources:
    requests:
      memory: 400Mi

In the above CRD restoreNamespaces is optional. Application scope of Namespaced, will enable additonal namespaces that can be restored into. Application scope of clustered will restrict restores to those specific namespaces only.

Provide Resource Limits for Trilio Pods

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: TrilioVaultManager
metadata:
  labels:
    triliovault: k8s
  name: tvk
spec:
  trilioVaultAppVersion: 2.5.0
  applicationScope: Cluster
  # T4K components configuration, currently supports control-plane, web, exporter, web-backend, ingress-controller, admission-webhook.
  # User can configure resources for all componentes and can configure service type and host for the ingress-controller
  componentConfiguration:
    web-backend:
      resources:
        requests:
          memory: "400Mi"
          cpu: "200m"
        limits:
          memory: "2584Mi"

    ingress-controller:
      service:
        type: LoadBalancer
      host: "trilio.co.in"

Backup Target

The Backup Target CRD specifies the backup storage media. Trilio supports either AWS S3 compatible object storage or NFS. A user can configure multiple backup targets and choose the target when an Application CR is created by providing target name and the name of the namespace where it resides. The target credentials can be saved as a secret and refer to the target CR for better security reasons. All backups that are created for that Application will be saved on the backup target specified in Application CR spec. Once a backup target is chosen for an Application, it cannot be changed.

Policy

Trilio provides a Policy Custom Resource Definition through which scheduling, retention, and cleanup policies can be created.

Scheduling Policy

A scheduling policy can be created to automate the capture of applications within a Kubernetes system on a periodic basis. T4K enables users to create a scheduling policy with multiple cron strings defined within it. Each Cron string creates an associated cron job within the Kubernetes system and as a result daily, weekly, yearly, etc. policies can be created independently of each other within the same policy CR.

Below is an example of a scheduling policy CR:

kind: "Policy"
apiVersion: "triliovault.trilio.io/v1"
metadata:
  name: "test-all-sch"
spec:
  type: "Schedule"
  scheduleConfig:
    schedule:
      - "0 0 * * *"
      - "0 */1 * * *"
      - "0 0 * * 0"
      - "0 0 1 * *"
      - "0 0 1 1 *"

Retention Policy

The retention policy enables users to define the number of backups to retain and the cadence to delete backups as per compliance requirements. The retention policy CR provides a simple YAML specification to define the number of backups to retain in terms of days, weeks, months, years, latest etc.

Retention Polices are referenced within a BackupPlan and can be added to any of the example YAML files provided below

Example - Retention Policy

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: Policy
metadata:
  name: sample-policy
spec:
  type: Retention
  default: false
  retentionConfig:
    latest: 2
    weekly: 1
    dayOfWeek: Wednesday
    monthly: 1
    dateOfMonth: 15
    monthOfYear: March
    yearly: 1

Cleanup Policy

By default, Trilio does not delete failed backup job backup images or backup CRs. Users must manually delete failed backups. However, Trilio provides a cleanup policy to clean up failed backups. This policy only cleans up the backup files on the target associated with the failed backup job, not the backup CR itself. Users must use the kubectl command to delete any failed backup CRs from the cluster. If the spec.default is true and the policy is created in the T4K installed namespace, the policy applies to the entire cluster. If the spec.default is false, then the policy applies to the namespace where the policy was created. UI automatically sets the spec.default to false. A cron job that runs every 30 mins and deletes failed backups data based on the value specified by spec.cleanupConfig.backupdays. The policy does not delete any volume snapshots left behind by the failed backup jobs. Since backup CRs have an ownerRef on the volume snapshots, they will be automatically deleted when the failed backup CRs are deleted

An example cleanup policy that cleans up failed backups after five days is provided below.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: Policy
metadata:
  name: sample-cleanup-policy
spec:
  type: Cleanup
  default: true
  cleanupConfig:
    backupDays: 5

Continuous Restore Policy

Continuous Restore policy defines the number of consistent sets on a remote site.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: Policy
metadata:
  name: continuous-restore-policy
  namespace: default
spec:
  continuousRestoreConfig:
    consistentSets: 3
  default: false
  type: ContinuousRestore

Immutability

Trilio provides the ability to create immutable backups at the application level. Once the backup is taken and stored on an immutable target, it can not be altered (overwritten/deleted) until the retention period set through T4K is up.

Immutable Target

To create immutable backups, user needs to create an immutable target as shown in the sample below. The immutable targets work only on object storage targets.

kind: Target
apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
metadata:
  name: sample-immutable-target
spec:
  type: ObjectStore
  vendor: AWS
  objectStoreCredentials:
    # immutable targets works only on object store targets
    region: us-east-1
    bucketName: trilio-browser-test
    credentialSecret:
      name: sample-secret
      namespace: TARGET_NAMESPACE    
  objectLockingEnabled: true
  thresholdCapacity: 5Gi

Retention Policy for immutable backup

After immutable target, user needs to create a retention policy. This sets up the retention period for the backup. Refer the sample Example - Retention Policy.

Immutable Backup

After immutable target and retention policy are set, user needs to create a backup. Once the backup is taken and stored on an immutable target, it can not be altered (overwritten/deleted) until the retention period set through T4K is up. Refer the BackupPlan and Backup samples below.

Example - BackupPlan with Retention Period

Sample for BackupPlan with Retention period

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: BackupPlan
metadata:
  name: sample-immutable-backupplan
spec:
  backupConfig:
    target:
      name: sample-immutable-target
      namespace: TARGET_NAMESPACE
    retentionPolicy:
      name: sample-retention-policy
      namespace: POLICY_NAMESPACE
    schedulePolicy:
      fullBackupPolicy:
        name: sample-schedule-policy
        namespace: POLICY_NAMESPACE
  backupPlanComponents:
    customSelector:
      selectResources:
        labelSelector:
          - matchLabels:
              app: gcp-compute-persistent-disk-csi-driver

kind: Backup
metadata:
  name: sample-immutable-backup
spec:
  type: Full
  backupPlan:
    name: sample-immutable-backupplan
    namespace: BACKUP_NAMESPACE

Hooks

Hooks enable injecting commands into pods/containers before and after a backup via pre/post commands. Hooks enable taking application consistent backups and extending backup workflows.

Note: Hook should be created in the same namespace as that of BackupPlan referencing it resides.

BackupPlan

The BackupPlan CRD specifies the backup job. The specification includes the backup schedule, backup target and the resources to backup. Trilio supports three types of resources to backup and an BackupPlan CR may include combination of these resources.

This BackupPlan CR defines a set of resources to backup. Resources can be defined in the form of Helm release, Operators or just bare k8s api resources.

In this release, Trilio supports backup of the following:

  1. Helm releases

  2. Operator-based application instances

  3. Label-based selection of resources

  4. Namespaces

Type: Custom Label - Example 1

The following sample BackupPlan CR specifies a Label-based selection of resources. In this example any resource has a label app with valuegcp-compute-persistent-disk-csi-driver will be backed up.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: BackupPlan
metadata:
  name: sample-application
spec:
  backupConfig:
    target:
      namespace: default
      name: sample-target
    schedulePolicy:
      fullBackupCron:
        schedule: "* 0 1 * *"
      incrementalCron:
        schedule: "* 0 * * *"
  backupPlanComponents:
    custom:
      - matchLabels:
          app: gcp-compute-persistent-disk-csi-driver

Type: Custom Label - Example 2 - Multiple Labels

The example below explains how a backupPlan CR can be used to protect data using multiple labels.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: BackupPlan
metadata:
  name: sample-application
spec:
  backupConfig:
    target:
      namespace: default
      name: sample-target
  backupPlanComponents:
    custom:
      - matchLabels:
          app: frontend
      - matchLabels:
          app: backend

Type: Helm - Example 1 - Single Helm Release

The following sample BackupPlan CR that specifies Helm release based resources to backup. Trilio automatically discovers the resources that belong to the release and backups the helm chart as whole. The release that this example backups is mysql-releasename.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: BackupPlan
metadata:
  name: sample-application
spec:
  backupConfig:
    target:
      namespace: default
      name: demo-s3-target
    schedulePolicy:
      fullBackupCron:
        schedule: "* 0 1 * *"
      incrementalCron:
        schedule: "* 0 * * *"
  backupPlanComponents:
    helmReleases:
      - mysql-releasename

Type: Helm - Example 2 - Multiple Helm Releases

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: BackupPlan
metadata:
  name: sample-application
spec:
  backupConfig:
    target:
      namespace: default
      name: demo-s3-target
  backupPlanComponents:
    helmReleases:
      - sample-release
      - sample-release1

Type Operator - Example 1

Another type of resource that Trilio supports is an Operator-based applications and the following YAML snippet describes the BackupPlan CR that includes the operator based application.

Example 1a

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: BackupPlan

              app.kubernetes.io/name: mysql

Type: Namespace - Example 1

For namespace level backup, BackupPlan components are optional

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: BackupPlan
metadata:
  name: ns-backupplan-1
spec:
  backupConfig:
    target:
      namespace: default
      name: demo-s3-target

Type: ClusterBackupPlan - Example 1

ClusterBackupPlan is used to protect multiple namespaces in the cluster. User can specify multiple namespaces to be backed up.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: ClusterBackupPlan
metadata:
  name: sample-clusterbplan
spec:
  backupConfig:
    target:
      name: sample-target
      namespace: TARGET_NAMESPACE
  retentionPolicy:
    name: sample-retention-policy
    namespace: POLICY_NAMESPACE
  schedulePolicy:
    fullBackupPolicy:
      name: sample-schedule-policy
      namespace: POLICY_NAMESPACE
  backupComponents:
    - namespace: NS_1
    - namespace: NS_2

Type: Inclusion/Exclusion

User can provide specific resource which needs to be included or excluded while doing backup. Resources can be specified either by GVKO or by the Kind directly.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: BackupPlan
metadata:
  name: sample-backupplan
spec:
  backupConfig:
    target:
      name: sample-target
      namespace: TARGET_NAMESPACE
  includeResources:
    labelSelector:
      - matchLabels:
          triliobackupall: trilio
  excludeResources:
    labelSelector:
      - matchLabels:
          triliobackupall: trilio

Type: Encryption

Encryption of the backups provides protection from malicious users. T4K encrypts the backup data at the application level using an encryption key that can only be restored with the same encryption key.

Master Encryption Key

3.0.0 introduced the concept of the master encryption key. The master encryption key is used with the backup encryption key for target browsing and continuous restore. The user must create a master encryption key in T4K installed namespace.

apiVersion: v1
data:
  masterEncryptionKeyConfig: dHJpbGlvbWFzdGVya2V5
kind: Secret
metadata:
  creationTimestamp: "2022-10-26T21:35:04Z"
  name: triliovault-master-encryption-key
  namespace: default
  resourceVersion: "13668"
  uid: 424b3d66-0190-4bd3-ae6c-4f22dbeef786
type: Opaque

Create a secret for encrypting the backups.

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: sample-secret
type: Opaque
data:
  encryptKey: bXllbmNyeXB0aW9ua2V5
apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: BackupPlan
metadata:
  name: sample-application
spec:
  encryption:
    encryptionSecret:
      name: sample-secret
      namespace: BACKUPPLAN_NAMESPACE
  backupConfig:
    target:
      name: sample-target
    retentionPolicy:
      name: sample-retention-policy
  backupPlanComponents:
    helmReleases:
      - mysql

Backup

The Backup CRD takes a backup of the resources specified in the BackupPlan spec. It takes either a Full backup or an Incremental Backup. The first backup of the Application will always be a Full backup, even if the user specifies their backup type as Incremental.

Note: BackupPlan and Backup CR should be created in the same namespace.

The incremental backup includes all the YAML files and delta changes to PV data. Incremental backups are not complete by themselves and rely on all the previous incremental backups and the full backup.

Example 1 - Full Backup

The following sample Backup YAML for Full backup

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: Backup
metadata:
  name: sample-backup
spec:
  type: Full
  backupPlan:
    name: sample-application
    namespace: default

Example 2 - Incremental Backup

Sample Backup YAML for incremental backup

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: Backup
metadata:
  name: sample-backup
spec:
  type: Incremental
  backupPlan:
    name: sample-application
    namespace: default

The scheduleType the field is to specify if the backup should follow the backup schedule provided in the backupPlan or if it should be a one-time backup only.

Example 3 - ClusterBackup

Sample Backup YAML for ClusterBackup. This CR is used to back up multiple namespaces and should be used with ClusterBackupPlan. It takes either a Full backup or an Incremental Backup. The first backup will always be a Full backup, even if the user specifies their backup type as Incremental.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: ClusterBackup
metadata:
  name: sample-clusterbackup
spec:
  clusterBackupPlan:
    name: sample-clusterbplan
  type: Full

Restore

The Restore CRD specifies the backup that resources need to be restored from. Resources can be restored to the same namespace or a different namespace. If a backup target with existing backups are created to a different cluster, those backups can be restored to the cluster. A migration or disaster recovery use case can be implemented using this functionality.

Example 1 - Restore from a specific backup

Sample YAML file to restore from a specific backup. The backup is identified by name sample-backup.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: Restore
metadata:
  name: sample-restore
spec:
  source:
    type: Backup
    backup:
      name: sample-backup
      namespace: default

Example 2 - Restore last successful backup

Sample YAML that restores latest backup of a BackupPlan.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: Restore
metadata:
  name: sample-restore
spec:
  source:
    type: BackupPlan
    backupPlan:
      name: sample-application
      namespace: default

Example 3 - Skip Restore

Trilio provides the capability to Skip the restoration of objects if they already exist in the namespace. This is achieved by using the skipIfAlreadyExists field within the Restore custom resource

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: Restore
metadata:
  name: sample-restore
spec:
  source:
    type: Backup
    backup:
      name: sample-backup
      namespace: default
  skipIfAlreadyExists: true

Example 4 - Patch Restore

Trilio provides the capability to Patch resources if they already existing in the namespace during the restore

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: Restore
metadata:

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: Restore
metadata:
  name: sample-restore
spec:
  source:
    type: Backup
    backup:
      name: sample-backup
      namespace: default
  transformComponents:
    helm:
      - release: mysql
        transformName: t1
        set:
          - key: persistence.storageClass
            value: insert.storage.class.here
    custom:
      - transformName: t3
        resources:

            kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
          objects:
            - insert-pvc1-to-be-replaced
            - insert-pvc2-to-be-replaced
        jsonPatches:
          - op: replace
            path: "/spec/storageClassName"
            value: insert.updated.storage.class.here

Example 7 - Restore with Transformations (NodePort)

          path: "/spec/ports/0/nodePort"
          value: 31366

Example 8 - Restore with Exclusions

Use Group, Version, Kind, Object mapping to point to a resource and exclude it from a restore operation.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: Restore
metadata:
  name: sample-restore
spec:
  source:
    type: Backup
    backup:
      name: sample-backup
      namespace: default
  excludeResources:
  - groupVersionKind:
      group: ""
      version: v1
      kind: Pod
    objects:
      - Pod1
      - Pod2
  - groupVersionKind:
      group: apps
      version: v1
      kind: Deployment
    objects:
      - Deployment1

Example 9 - Restore from BackupPlan

Restore from BackupPlan enables users to restore the last successful backup based on a BackupPlan by providing only the name of the BackupPlan.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: Restore
metadata:
  name: sample-restore
spec:
  source:
    type: BackupPlan
    backupPlan:
      name: sample-backupplan-helm3
      namespace: default

Example 10 - ClusterRestore

ClusterRestore enables users to restore the last successful ClusterBackup based on a ClusterBackupPlan. It is used to restore multiple namespaces protected by the ClusterBackup. The ClusterBackup is identified by name sample-clusterbackup. It also provides a flag to cleanup in case of a failure.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: ClusterRestore
metadata:
  name: sample-clusterrestore
spec:
  source:
    type: ClusterBackup
    clusterBackup:
      name: sample-clusterbackup
  globalConfig:
    restoreFlags:
      skipIfAlreadyExists: true
  components:
    - backupNamespace: NS_1
      restoreNamespace: NS_RES_1
    - backupNamespace: NS_2
      restoreNamespace: NS_RES_2
  cleanupOnFailure: true

Example 11 - Encryption - Restore From Specific Location with encryption

Restore with encryption key is used to decrypt the encrypted data as shown in Type: ClusterBackupPlan - Example 1.

apiVersion: triliovault.trilio.io/v1
kind: Restore
metadata:
  name: sample-restore
spec:
  source:
    type: Location
    location: e90ce943-a0ce-11ea-93b2-42010a8e0038/66777359-a0d1-11ea-93b2-42010a8e0038
