Hi, what are the options to consistently backup and restore data out of a ceph cluster? - RBDs can be snapshotted. - Data on RBDs used inside VMs can be backed up using tools from the guest. - CephFS data can be backed up using rsync are similar tools What about object data in other pools? There are two scenarios where a backup is needed: - disaster recovery, i.e. the while cluster goes nuts - single item restore, because PEBKAC or application error Is there any work on progress to cover these?
