Usage
|
||||||
|
~~~~~
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This Ansible role allows to
|
||||||
|
do the following tasks:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Take LVM snapshots in both the Controller and Compute nodes.
|
||||||
|
2. Revert the state to the previously created snapshots.
|
||||||
|
3. Remove the snapshots.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
LVM snapshots are a feature of Linux Logical Volume Manager (LVM)
|
||||||
|
that allows users to create a temporary, read-only copy of a
|
||||||
|
the logical volumes of the Overcloud nodes.
|
||||||
|
The copy is a point-in-time representation of the original volume
|
||||||
|
and can be used for various purposes like data backup, testing, and recovery.
|
||||||
|
The ext4 file system must be used on top of LVM logical volumes, otherwise
|
||||||
|
this feature can not be used.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This example is meant to describe a very simple
|
||||||
|
use case in which the user needs to create a set
|
||||||
|
of recovery LVM snapshots from the Controller and Compute nodes.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Login in the Undercloud node and run:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Create snapshots in the Compute and Controller nodes
|
||||||
|
openstack overcloud backup snapshot
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To revert the snapshots run:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Revert snapshots in the Compute and Controller nodes
|
||||||
|
openstack overcloud backup snapshot --revert
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Then, to remove the created snapshots run:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Remove snapshots in the Controller and Compute nodes
|
||||||
|
openstack overcloud backup snapshot --remove
