This section describes how to configure the cinder-backup service and
its drivers.
The volume drivers are included with the `Block Storage repository
<https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/cinder/>`_. To set a backup
driver, use the ``backup_driver`` flag. By default there is no backup
driver enabled.

==================
Ceph backup driver
==================
The Ceph backup driver backs up volumes of any type to a Ceph back-end
store. The driver can also detect whether the volume to be backed up is
a Ceph RBD volume, and if so, it tries to perform incremental and
differential backups.
For source Ceph RBD volumes, you can perform backups within the same
Ceph pool (not recommended). You can also perform backups between
different Ceph pools and between different Ceph clusters.
At the time of writing, differential backup support in Ceph/librbd was
quite new. This driver attempts a differential backup in the first
instance. If the differential backup fails, the driver falls back to
full backup/copy.
If incremental backups are used, multiple backups of the same volume are
stored as snapshots so that minimal space is consumed in the backup
store. It takes far less time to restore a volume than to take a full
copy.
.. note::
Block Storage enables you to:
- Restore to a new volume, which is the default and recommended
action.
- Restore to the original volume from which the backup was taken.
The restore action takes a full copy because this is the safest
action.
To enable the Ceph backup driver, include the following option in the
``cinder.conf`` file:
.. code-block:: ini
backup_driver = cinder.backup.drivers.ceph
The following configuration options are available for the Ceph backup
driver.
.. include:: ../../tables/cinder-backups_ceph.rst
This example shows the default options for the Ceph backup driver.
.. code-block:: ini
backup_ceph_conf=/etc/ceph/ceph.conf
backup_ceph_user = cinder
backup_ceph_chunk_size = 134217728
backup_ceph_pool = backups
backup_ceph_stripe_unit = 0
backup_ceph_stripe_count = 0

=================
NFS backup driver
=================
The backup driver for the NFS back end backs up volumes of any type to
an NFS exported backup repository.
To enable the NFS backup driver, include the following option in the
``[DEFAULT]`` section of the ``cinder.conf`` file:
.. code-block:: ini
backup_driver = cinder.backup.drivers.nfs
The following configuration options are available for the NFS back-end
backup driver.

===================
Swift backup driver
===================
The backup driver for the swift back end performs a volume backup to an
object storage system.
To enable the swift backup driver, include the following option in the
``cinder.conf`` file:
.. code-block:: ini
backup_driver = cinder.backup.drivers.swift
The following configuration options are available for the Swift back-end
backup driver.
.. include:: ../../tables/cinder-backups_swift.rst
To enable the swift backup driver for 1.0 or 2.0 authentication version,
specify ``1`` or ``2`` correspondingly. For example:
.. code-block:: ini
backup_swift_auth_version = 2
In addition, the 2.0 authentication system requires the definition of the
``backup_swift_tenant`` setting:
.. code-block:: ini
backup_swift_tenant = <None>
This example shows the default options for the Swift back-end backup
driver.
.. code-block:: ini
backup_swift_url = http://localhost:8080/v1/AUTH_
backup_swift_auth = per_user
backup_swift_auth_version = 1
backup_swift_user = <None>
backup_swift_key = <None>
backup_swift_container = volumebackups
backup_swift_object_size = 52428800
backup_swift_retry_attempts = 3
backup_swift_retry_backoff = 2
backup_compression_algorithm = zlib

========================================
IBM Tivoli Storage Manager backup driver
========================================
The IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) backup driver enables performing
volume backups to a TSM server.
The TSM client should be installed and configured on the machine running
the cinder-backup service. See the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager
Backup-Archive Client Installation and User's Guide for details on
installing the TSM client.
To enable the IBM TSM backup driver, include the following option in
``cinder.conf``:
.. code-block:: ini
backup_driver = cinder.backup.drivers.tsm
The following configuration options are available for the TSM backup
driver.
.. include:: ../../tables/cinder-backups_tsm.rst
This example shows the default options for the TSM backup driver.
.. code-block:: ini
backup_tsm_volume_prefix = backup
backup_tsm_password = password
backup_tsm_compression = True
