You can use these workflows as part of administering the applications in an Astra managed cluster.
Note
|
These workflows can be expanded and enhanced by NetApp at any time and so you should review them periodically. |
Before using any of the Astra workflows, make sure to review Prepare to use the workflows.
The management workflows are organized in different categories to make it easier to locate the one you want.
Category | Description |
---|---|
Application control |
These workflows allow you to control the managed and unmanaged applications. You can list the apps as well as create and remove a managed app. |
Application protection |
You can use these workflows to protect your managed applications through snapshots and backups. |
Cloning and restoring apps |
These workflow describe how to clone and restore your managed applications. |
Support |
There are several workflows available to debug and support your applications as well as the general Kubernetes environment. |
There are a several additional considerations when using the management workflows.
There are a few things to consider when cloning an application. The parameters described below are part of the JSON input.
- Source cluster identifier
-
The value of
sourceClusterID
always identifies the cluster where the original app is installed. - Cluster identifier
-
The value of
clusterID
identifies the cluster where the new app will be installed.-
When cloning within the same cluster,
clusterID
andsourceClusterID
have the same value. -
When cloning across clusters, the two values are different and
clusterID
should be the ID of the target cluster.
-
- Namespaces
-
The
namespace
value must be different than the original source app. Further, the namespace for the clone cannot exist and Astra will create it. - Backups and snapshots
-
You can optionally clone an application from an existing backup or snapshot using the
backupID
orsnapshotID
parameters. If you don’t provide a backup or snapshot, Astra will create a backup of the application first and then clone from the backup.
