Service cassandra description

Sample pillars

Single cassandra service

cassandra:
  server:
    enabled: true
    version: icehouse

Backup client with ssh/rsync remote host

  cassandra:
    backup:
      client:
        enabled: true
        full_backups_to_keep: 3
        hours_before_full: 24
        target:
          host: cfg01
          home_dir: server-home-dir

.. note:: full_backups_to_keep param states how many backup will be stored locally on cassandra client.
          More options to relocate local backups can be done using salt-formula-backupninja.

Backup client container with ssh/rsync remote host

cassandra:
  backup:
    client:
      enabled: true
      full_backups_to_keep: 3
      hours_before_full: 24
      containers:
      - opencontrail_controller_1
      target:
        host: cfg01
        home_dir: server-home-dir

Backup client with local backup only

  cassandra:
    backup:
      client:
        enabled: true
        full_backups_to_keep: 3
        hours_before_full: 24

.. note:: full_backups_to_keep param states how many backup will be stored locally on cassandra client

Backup client at exact times:

..code-block:: yaml

cassandra:

backup:

client:

enabled: true full_backups_to_keep: 3 incr_before_full: 3 backup_times:

day_of_week: 0 hour: 4 minute: 52

compression: true compression_threads: 2 database:

user: user password: password

target:

host: host01

Note

Parameters in backup_times section can be used to set up exact

time the cron job should be executed. In this example, the backup job would be executed every Sunday at 4:52 AM. If any of the individual backup_times parameters is not defined, the defalut * value will be used. For example, if minute parameter is *, it will run the backup every minute, which is ususally not desired. Available parameters are day_of_week, day_of_month, month, hour and minute. Please see the crontab reference for further info on how to set these parameters.

Note

Please be aware that only backup_times section OR

hours_before_full(incr) can be defined. If both are defined, the backup_times section will be peferred.

Note

New parameter incr_before_full needs to be defined. This

number sets number of incremental backups to be run, before a full backup is performed.
