Re: Full backup/restore of Ceph cluster?

Hi Craig,

We are indeed using both Ceph FS and radosgw. I know I can use tools to crawl over all the files and copy them someplace else, but wanted to see if there was a better Ceph-recommended way to backup the pools themselves which I can then re-import.

You linked to both RDB and CephFS topics.  Looks like RDB is covered well in this thread, but you'll need something else if you want to backup CephFS (or RadosGW).

CephFS is a normal file POSIX filesystem, so normal backup tools work on it.  Although that can be complicated if you make it large.

You didn't mention RadosGW, so I'll skip that.

Hi folks,

I was wondering if anyone has a solution for performing a complete backup and restore of a CEph cluster. A Google search came up with some articles/blog posts, some of which are old, and I don't really have a great idea of the feasibility of this.

Here's what I've found:

http://ceph.com/docs/giant/rbd/rbd-snapshot/

Is RBD snapshotting what I'm looking for? Is this even possible? Any info is much appreciated!

Thanks,

Chris
