How to restore a local backup
This is a guide on how to restore a locally made backup.
To restore a backup that was made from a different cluster, (i.e. cluster migration via restore), see How to migrate to a new cluster.
Prerequisites
- Access to an S3-compatible storage
- Configured settings for the S3-compatible storage
- Existing backups in your S3-compatible storage
List backups
To view the available backups to restore, use the command list-backups:
juju run opensearch/leader list-backups
Running operation 335 with 1 task
- task 336 on unit-opensearch-0
Waiting for task 336...
backups: |2-
backup-id | backup-status
------------------------------------
2024-04-25T21:09:38Z | success
2024-04-25T21:16:26Z | success
Restore backup
To restore a backup from the previously returned list, run the restore command and pass the corresponding backup-id:
juju run opensearch/leader restore backup-id="2024-04-25T21:16:26Z"
Running operation 339 with 1 task
- task 340 on unit-opensearch-0
Waiting for task 340...
backup-id: "2024-04-25T21:16:26Z"
closed-indices: '{''.opensearch-sap-log-types-config'', ''series_index'', ''.plugins-ml-config''}'
status: Restore is complete
Your backup has been restored.
If the restore takes too long, the Juju CLI above will time out but the juju status command will show if the charm is still running the restore action or not.
