I want to automate backups on a glusterfs 3.7.3 share with snapshots.
Creating snapshots manualy works, but how are they secured to a different server?
I was able manage that process manually by doing the following:
sudo umount /run/gluster/snaps/7cb4b2c8f8a64ceaba62bc4ca6cd76b2/brick1
sudo dd if=/dev/mapper/gluster-506cb09085b2428e9daca8ac0857c2c9_0 | gzip > snap01.gz
That seems to work, but how could I possibly know the snapshot name? I took this info here from df -h
The snapshots are located here:
/var/lib/glusterd/snaps/
But those are not only a few KB and I would like to be able to do a full recover of the snapshot.,
I also tried to run the command mentioned in the docs:
> to mount snapshot volume:
> mount -t glusterfs <hostname>:/snaps/<snap-name>/<origin-volname> /<mount_point>
> mount -t glusterfs <hostname>:/snaps/<snap-name>/<origin-volname> /<mount_point>
This did not work. There seems not to be any folder called /snaps/ as when I press tab I get suggestion for vol1 but nothing else.
Thank you in advance for any help
