Velero Plugin for OpenEBS ZFS LocalPV

This repository provides a Velero volume snapshotter plugin for backing up and restoring OpenEBS ZFS LocalPV volumes to AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, or an S3-compatible object store.

Prerequisites

• Velero
• OpenEBS ZFS LocalPV
• An object-storage bucket and credentials available to the Velero plugin

Install the plugin

velero plugin add openebs/velero-plugin:<VERSION>

Configure the snapshot location

Create a Velero VolumeSnapshotLocation using the openebs.io/zfspv-blockstore provider. The namespace, provider, and bucket values are required; region is also required when provider is aws.

apiVersion: velero.io/v1
kind: VolumeSnapshotLocation
metadata:
  name: openebs-zfs
  namespace: velero
spec:
  provider: openebs.io/zfspv-blockstore
  config:
    namespace: openebs
    provider: aws
    bucket: <BUCKET_NAME>
    region: <AWS_REGION>

See example/06-volumesnapshotlocation.yaml for optional S3 and incremental-backup settings.

Back up and restore

velero backup create zfs-backup \
  --include-namespaces=<NAMESPACE> \
  --snapshot-volumes \
  --volume-snapshot-locations=openebs-zfs

velero restore create --from-backup zfs-backup --restore-volumes=true

For scheduled incremental backups, set incrBackupCount in the snapshot location and create a Velero schedule:

velero schedule create zfs-schedule \
  --schedule="0 */6 * * *" \
  --include-namespaces=<NAMESPACE> \
  --snapshot-volumes \
  --volume-snapshot-locations=openebs-zfs
