Description
Create full or split partitions backup for one or more databases to a specified repository.
This command runs BACKUP DATABASE on the Master Aggregator with automatically configured options based on the specified backup repository.
All of the sdb-admin backup
-related commands take the --repository
option which is a concise pointer to a location storing all of the backups.
{protocol}://{path}[?{options}]
The protocol determines which options are supported and how the path is interpreted.file
, s3
, and azure
.
Split backup can be created only if all nodes in the cluster run SingleStore 7.
Examples
sdb-admin create-backup --repository "s3://foo/bar?region=eu-central-1" database_1 database_2
sdb-admin create-backup database_1 -r azure://foo/bar database_2
sdb-admin create-backup -r file:///nfs db1
sdb-admin create-backup -r "s3://foo/bar?region=eu-central-1" database_1
sdb-admin create-backup -r "s3://foo/bar?region=eu-central-1" database_1 --backup-type split
Create initial incremental backup database_
:
sdb-admin create-backup -r "s3://foo/bar?region=eu-central-1" database_1 --backup-type init --backup-suffix week_1
Create differential backup database_
:
sdb-admin create-backup -r "s3://foo/bar?region=eu-central-1" database_1 --backup-type differential --backup-suffix week_1
Create a backup with tags:
sdb-admin create-backup database_1 -r file:///tmp/foo.backup --tags production,no-prune
