Hi @<1528908687685455872:profile|MassiveBat21> , the fileserver can be backed up using a volume snapshot. As for the other databases (ES, Mongo), you should use the appropriate backup method recommended in their documentation
fileserver contains uploaded files (like debug samples, perhaps models and artifacts if you're not using S3 or the like), ES contains metrics and events and Mongo has all the metadata
Thanks for the response. So I’ll go with an automated snapshot.
What should I expect to be stored in ES and mongo, and what’s in the file server?
will a partial backup of just say mongo work? Or are all the dbs expected to restore together?
OK, got it. Thank you @<1523701087100473344:profile|SuccessfulKoala55> !
Hi @<1523701087100473344:profile|SuccessfulKoala55> , just as an afterthought:
Since elastic and mongo data are stored in volumes too, couldn’t a restore simply mean restoring a snapshot of all those 3 volumes as a whole?
as to not create a snapshot of an unstable state?
(to back up as well, not just to restore)
I would assume so, but you'll have to shut down the entire system to do that
