  • Backup file system tree directly (without volume snapshot)
  • Backup journalled MongoDB directory tree using lvm snapshot to Swift
  • Backup MySQL with lvm snapshot
  • Restore data from a specific date automatically to file system
  • Low storage consumption as the backup are uploaded as a stream
  • Flexible backup policy (incremental and differential)
  • Data is archived in GNU Tar format for file based incremental
  • Multiple compression algorithm support (zlib, bzip2, xz)
  • Remove old backup automatically according to the provided parameters
  • Multiple storage media support (Swift, local file system, or ssh)
  • Flush kernel buffered memory to disk
  • Multi-platform (Linux, Windows, *BSD, OSX)
  • Manage multiple jobs (I.e., multiple backups on the same node)
  • Synchronize backups and restore on multiple nodes
  • Web user interface integrated with OpenStack Horizon
  • Execute scripts/commands before or after a job execution
  • More ...

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:

Troubleshooting

When errors occure, these are good places to check:

  • freezer-api log: $HOME/log/freezer-api.log

    /var/log/apache2/freezer-api.log

  • freezer-agent log: $HOME/.freezer/freezer.log
  • freezer-scheduler log:/var/log/freezer/scheduler.log

Developers

Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file and OpenStack general development guidelines, and pass all unit tests.
