Using Ceph for Cinder backups
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Deployers can use Ceph to hold Cinder volume backups if they have Ceph
deployed. To get started, set the ``cinder_service_backup_driver`` Ansible
variable:
.. code-block:: yaml
cinder_service_backup_driver: cinder.backup.drivers.ceph
Next, configure the Ceph user and the pool to use for backups. The defaults
are shown here:
.. code-block:: yaml
cinder_service_backup_ceph_user: cinder-backup
cinder_service_backup_ceph_pool: backups
