Our PaaS team is interested in running backups with kubectl and I couldn’t give them a straight answer on this. Is this something that could be built or is in the works?
Kubernetes backup with kubectl
Best answer by Mathew Ericson
Thanks
Very interesting discussion and while I can’t comment on anything that may or may not be in development - my advice to
At a high-level we see a number of approaches today - the more common scenario we see today is
- onboard a kubernetes cluster
- create a app group matching the label selectors + plan (based on value of the data)
- let commvault and the ‘backup operator’ manage and monitor backups and recovery readiness
We don’t see alot of DevOps engineers that want to actively run a kubectl based backup - using Commvault’s label selector auto-discovery & protection gives DevOs engineers the ability to integrate Commvault in GitsOps managed apps - without requiring the developer to be running backups or restores via kubectl command line.
