Backups

Enabling backups

Backups are implemented via aws snapshots system. To enable snapshots follow this instruction (and don't forget to add tags to your ebs).

To find which EBS you want to backup:

• run kubectl get pv -n <your_namespace> to find names of all PVs and their claimers;
• run kubectl describe pv <pv_name> -n <your_namespace> to find id of the EBS

Restoring from backup

1. Find needed snapshot by creation date;
2. Create volume from this snapshot (Actions -> Create Volume);
3. Find this volume's ID in dashboard;
4. Force Persistent Volume attached to your Pod use this volume.
