The cluster backup and restore operator solution provides backup and restore support for all hub cluster resources such as managed clusters, applications, and policies. You can use the solution to back up any third-party resources extending the basic hub cluster installation. With this backup solution, you can define a cron-based backup schedule, which runs at specified time intervals and continuously backs up the latest version of the hub cluster content.

When the hub cluster needs to be replaced or is in a disaster scenario when the hub cluster fails, a new hub cluster can be deployed and backed up data is moved to the new hub cluster.

View the following ordered list of the cluster backup and restore process for identifying backup data:

You can use an Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management schedule to backup hub resources, which are grouped in separate backup files, based on the resource type or label annotations.

The BackupSchedule.cluster.open-cluster-management.io resource creates a set of four schedule.velero.io resources. These schedule.velero.io resources generate the backup files, which are also called resources.

To view the list of scheduled backup files, run the following command: oc get schedules -A | grep acm.

The scheduled backup files are backup.velero.io. See the following table to view the descriptions of these scheduled backup files:

When you add the cluster.open-cluster-management.io/backup label to a resource, the resource is automatically backed up in the acm-resources-generic-schedule backup. You must set the label value to cluster-activation if any of the resources need to be restored only after the managed clusters are moved to the new hub cluster and when the veleroManagedClustersBackupName:latest is used on the restored resource. This ensures that the resource is not restored unless the managed cluster activation is called. View the following example:

apiVersion: my.group/v1alpha1
kind: MyResource
 metadata:
  labels:
    cluster.open-cluster-management.io/backup: cluster-activation

Note: For any resource in the managed cluster namespace, you must restore it at the cluster activation step. Therefore, if you need to add to the backup resource created in the managed cluster namespace, then use the cluster-activation value for the cluster.open-cluster-management.io/backup label.

Aside from the activation data resources that are identified by using the cluster.open-cluster-management.io/backup: cluster-activation label and stored by the acm-resources-generic-schedule backup, the cluster backup and restore operator includes a few resources in the activation set by default. The following resources are backed up by the acm-managed-clusters-schedule backup:

In an active-passive configuration, there is one active hub cluster and passive hub clusters. An active hub cluster is also considered the primary hub cluster, which manages clusters and backs up resources at defined time intervals, using the BackupSchedule.cluster.open-cluster-management.io resource.

Note: To backup the primary hub cluster data, you do not need an active-passive configuration. You can simply backup and store the hub cluster data. This way, if there is an issue or failure, you can deploy a new hub cluster and restore your primary hub cluster data on this new hub cluster. To reduce the time to recover the primary hub cluster data, you can use an active-passive configuration; however, this is not necessary.

Passive hub clusters continuously retrieve the latest backups and restore the passive data. Passive hubs use the Restore.cluster.open-cluster-management.io resource to restore passive data from the primary hub cluster when new backup data is available. These hub clusters are on standby to become a primary hub when the primary hub cluster fails.

Active and passive hub clusters are connected to the same storage location, where the primary hub cluster backs up data for passive hub clusters to access the primary hub cluster backups. For more details on how to set up this automatic restore configuration, see Restoring passive resources while checking for backups.

In the following diagram, the active hub cluster manages the local clusters and backs up the hub cluster data at regular intervals:

The passive hub cluster restores this data, except for the managed cluster activation data, which moves the managed clusters to the passive hub cluster. The passive hub clusters can restore the passive data continuously. Passive hub clusters can restore passive data as a one-time operation. See Restoring passive resources for more details.

When the primary hub cluster fails, the administrator chooses a passive hub cluster to take over the managed clusters. In the following image, the administrator decides to use Hub cluster N as the new primary hub cluster:

Hub cluster N restores the managed cluster activation data. At this point, the managed clusters connect with Hub cluster N. The administrator activates a backup on the new primary hub cluster, Hub cluster N, by creating a BackupSchedule.cluster.open-cluster-management.io resource, and storing the backups at the same storage location as the initial primary hub cluster.

All other passive hub clusters now restore passive data using the backup data created by the new primary hub cluster. Hub N is now the primary hub cluster, managing clusters and backing up data.

Notes:

To use the backup and restore operator, you must set up hub clusters.

The cluster backup and restore operator can be enabled when the MultiClusterHub resource is created for the first time. The cluster-backup parameter is set to true. When the operator is enabled, the operator resources are installed.

If the MultiClusterHub resource is already created, you can install or uninstall the cluster backup operator by editing the MultiClusterHub resource. Set cluster-backup to false, if you want to uninstall the cluster backup operator.

When the backup and restore operator is enabled, your MultiClusterHub resource might resemble the following YAML file:

apiVersion: operator.open-cluster-management.io/v1
  kind: MultiClusterHub
  metadata:
    name: multiclusterhub
    namespace: open-cluster-management
  spec:
    availabilityConfig: High
    enableClusterBackup: false
    imagePullSecret: multiclusterhub-operator-pull-secret
    ingress:
      sslCiphers:
        - ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384
        - ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384
        - ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256
        - ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256
    overrides:
      components:
        - enabled: true
          name: multiclusterhub-repo
        - enabled: true
          name: search
        - enabled: true
          name: management-ingress
        - enabled: true
          name: console
        - enabled: true
          name: insights
        - enabled: true
          name: grc
        - enabled: true
          name: cluster-lifecycle
        - enabled: true
          name: volsync
        - enabled: true
          name: multicluster-engine
        - enabled: true
          name: cluster-backup
    separateCertificateManagement: false

You can backup third-party resources with cluster backup and restore by adding the cluster.open-cluster-management.io/backup label to the resources. The value of the label can be any string, including an empty string. Use a value that can help you identify the component that you are backing up. For example, use the cluster.open-cluster-management.io/backup: idp label if the components are provided by an IDP solution.

Note: Use the cluster-activation value for the cluster.open-cluster-management.io/backup label if you want the resources to be restored when the managed clusters activation resources are restored. Restoring the managed clusters activation resources result in managed clusters being actively managed by the hub cluster, where the restore was started.

A backup schedule is activated when you create the backupschedule.cluster.open-cluster-management.io resource. View the following backupschedule.cluster.open-cluster-management.io sample:

apiVersion: cluster.open-cluster-management.io/v1beta1
kind: BackupSchedule
metadata:
  name: schedule-acm
  namespace: open-cluster-management-backup
spec:
  veleroSchedule: 0 */2 * * *
  veleroTtl: 120h

After you create a backupschedule.cluster.open-cluster-management.io resource, run the following command to get the status of the scheduled cluster backups:

oc get BackupSchedule -n open-cluster-management-backup

The backupschedule.cluster.open-cluster-management.io resource creates six schedule.velero.io resources, which are used to generate backups. Run the following command to view the list of the backups that are scheduled:

oc get schedules -A | grep acm

Resources are separately backed up in the groups as seen in the following table:

Note: The resources backup file contains managed cluster-specific resources, but does not contain the subset of resources that connect managed clusters to the hub cluster. The resources that connect managed clusters are called activation resources and are contained in the managed clusters backup. When you restore backups only for the credentials and resources backup on a new hub cluster, the new hub cluster shows all managed clusters that are created by using the Hive API in a detached state. The managed clusters that are imported on the primary hub cluster by using the import operation appear only when the activation data is restored on the passive hub cluster. The managed clusters are still connected to the original hub cluster that created the backup files.

When the activation data is restored, only managed clusters created by using the Hive API are automatically connected with the new hub cluster. All other managed clusters appear in a Pending state. You need to manually reattach them to the new cluster.

oc get backupschedule -A

NAMESPACE       NAME               PHASE             MESSAGE
openshift-adp   schedule-hub-1   BackupCollision   Backup acm-resources-schedule-20220301234625, from cluster with id [be97a9eb-60b8-4511-805c-298e7c0898b3] is using the same storage location. This is a backup collision with current cluster [1f30bfe5-0588-441c-889e-eaf0ae55f941] backup. Review and resolve the collision then create a new BackupSchedule resource to  resume backups from this cluster.

When you need to restore backup data on a cluster, create a new cluster. During the hub cluster restore operation, you can configure the hub cluster backup restore to clean up the existing resources, if these resources are not part of the backup data being restored. The restore cleans up resources created by an earlier backup but does not clean up user resources. As a result, resources created by the user on this hub cluster are not cleaned up, so the data on this hub cluster is not reflective of the data available with the restored resource.

A disaster recovery test is an example situation where you can use an existing hub cluster. In a recovery test, you are only testing the hub backup scenario. In this situation, the initial primary hub cluster does not create new resources. Instead, the backup data has temporarily changed sides from the primary hub cluster to the passive hub cluster.

Before running the restore operation on a new hub cluster, you need to manually configure the hub cluster and install the same operators as on the initial hub cluster. You must install the Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management operator in the same namespace as the initial hub cluster, create the DataProtectionApplication resource, and then connect to the same storage location where the initial hub cluster previously backed up data.

Use the same configuration as on the initial hub cluster for the MultiClusterHub resource created by the Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management operator, including any changes to the MultiClusterEngine resource.

For example, if the initial hub cluster has any other operators installed, such as Ansible Automation Platform, Red Hat OpenShift GitOps, cert-manager, you have to install them before running the restore operation. This ensures that the new hub cluster is configured in the same way as the initial hub cluster.

Velero updates existing resources if they have changed with the currently restored backup. Velero does not clean up delta resources, which are resources created by a previous restore and not part of the currently restored backup. This limits the scenarios you can use when restoring hub cluster data on a new hub cluster. Unless the restore is applied only once, you cannot reliably use the new hub cluster as a passive configuration. The data on the hub cluster does not reflect the data available with the restored resources.

To address this limitation, when a Restore.cluster.open-cluster-management.io resource is created, the backup operator runs a post restore operation that cleans up the hub cluster. The operation removes any resources created by a previous Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management restore that are not part of the currently restored backup.

The post restore cleanup uses the cleanupBeforeRestore property to identify the subset of objects to clean up. You can use the following two options for the post restore cleanup:

Notes:

Use the restore-passive-sync sample to restore passive data, while continuing to check if new backups are available and restore them automatically. To automatically restore new backups, you must set the syncRestoreWithNewBackups parameter to true. You must also only restore the latest passive data. You can find the sample example at the end of this section.

Set the VeleroResourcesBackupName and VeleroCredentialsBackupName parameters to latest, and the VeleroManagedClustersBackupName parameter to skip. Immediately after the VeleroManagedClustersBackupName is set to latest, the managed clusters are activated on the new hub cluster and is now the primary hub cluster.

When the activated managed cluster becomes the primary hub cluster, the restore resource is set to Finished and the syncRestoreWithNewBackups is ignored, even if set to true.

By default, the controler checks for new backups every 30 minutes when the syncRestoreWithNewBackups is set to true. If new backups are found, it restores the backed up resources. You can change the duration of the check by updating the restoreSyncInterval parameter.

For example, see the following resource that checks for backups every 10 minutes:

apiVersion: cluster.open-cluster-management.io/v1beta1
kind: Restore
metadata:
  name: restore-acm-passive-sync
  namespace: open-cluster-management-backup
spec:
  syncRestoreWithNewBackups: true # restore again when new backups are available
  restoreSyncInterval: 10m # check for new backups every 10 minutes
  cleanupBeforeRestore: CleanupRestored
  veleroManagedClustersBackupName: skip
  veleroCredentialsBackupName: latest
  veleroResourcesBackupName: latest

Use the restore-acm-passive sample to restore hub cluster resources in a passive configuration. Passive data is backup data such as secrets, ConfigMaps, applications, policies, and all the managed cluster custom resources, which do not activate a connection between managed clusters and hub clusters. The backup resources are restored on the hub cluster by the credentials backup and restore resources.

See the following sample:

apiVersion: cluster.open-cluster-management.io/v1beta1
kind: Restore
metadata:
  name: restore-acm-passive
  namespace: open-cluster-management-backup
spec:
  cleanupBeforeRestore: CleanupRestored
  veleroManagedClustersBackupName: skip
  veleroCredentialsBackupName: latest
  veleroResourcesBackupName: latest

Before you restore the activation data on the passive hub cluster, shut down the previous hub cluster where the backup was created. If the primary hub cluster is still running, it attempts to reconnect with the managed clusters that are no longer available, based on the reconciliation procedure running on this hub cluster.

Use the restore-acm-passive-activate sample when you want the hub cluster to manage the clusters. In this case it is assumed that the other data has been restored already on the hub cluster that using the passive resource.

apiVersion: cluster.open-cluster-management.io/v1beta1
kind: Restore
metadata:
  name: restore-acm-passive-activate
  namespace: open-cluster-management-backup
spec:
  cleanupBeforeRestore: CleanupRestored
  veleroManagedClustersBackupName: latest
  veleroCredentialsBackupName: skip
  veleroResourcesBackupName: skip

You have some options to restore activation resources, depending on how you restored the passive resources:

Managed cluster activation data or other activation data resources are stored by the managed clusters backup and by the resource-generic backups, when you use the cluster.open-cluster-management.io/backup: cluster-activation label. When the activation data is restored on a new hub cluster, managed clusters are being actively managed by the hub cluster where the restore is run. See Scheduling and restoring backups to learn how you can use the operator.

Use the restore-acm sample if you want to restore all data at once and make the hub cluster manage the managed clusters in one step. After you create a restore.cluster.open-cluster-management.io resource on the hub cluster, run the following command to get the status of the restore operation:

oc get restore -n open-cluster-management-backup

Your sample might resemble the following resource:

apiVersion: cluster.open-cluster-management.io/v1beta1
kind: Restore
metadata:
  name: restore-acm
  namespace: open-cluster-management-backup
spec:
  cleanupBeforeRestore: CleanupRestored
  veleroManagedClustersBackupName: latest
  veleroCredentialsBackupName: latest
  veleroResourcesBackupName: latest

From your hub cluster, verify that the backed up resources contained by the backup file are created.

Only managed clusters connected with the primary hub cluster using the Hive API are automatically connected with the new hub cluster, where the activation data is restored. These clusters have been created on the primary hub cluster using the Create cluster button in the Clusters tab. Managed clusters connected with the initial hub cluster using the Import cluster button appear as Pending Import when the activation data is restored, and must be imported back on the new hub cluster.

The Hive managed clusters can be connected with the new hub cluster because Hive stores the managed cluster kubeconfig in the managed cluster namespace on the hub cluster. This is backed up and restored on the new hub cluster. The import controller then updates the bootstrap kubeconfig on the managed cluster using the restored configuration, which is only available for managed clusters created using the Hive API. It is not available for imported clusters.

To reconnect imported clusters on the new hub cluster, manually create the auto-import-secret resource after your start the restore operation. See Importing the cluster with the auto import secret for more details.

Create the auto-import-secret resource in the managed cluster namespace for each cluster in Pending Import state. Use a kubeconfig or token with enough permissions for the import component to start the automatic import on the new hub cluster. You must have access for each managed cluster by using a token to connect with the managed cluster. The token must have a klusterlet role binding or a role with the same permissions.

View the following Restore section to view the YAML examples to restore different types of backed up files.

Use the following command to get information about restore events:

oc describe -n open-cluster-management-backup <restore-name>

The automatic import feature using the Managed Service Account component is disabled by default. To enable the automatic import feature, complete the following steps:

After you enable the automatic import feature, the backup component starts processing imported managed clusters by creating the following:

The token is only created if the managed cluster is accessible when you create the Managed Service Account, otherwise it is created later once the managed cluster becomes available.

The following scenarios can prevent the managed cluster from being automatically imported when moving to a new hub cluster:

You can disable the automatic import cluster feature by setting the useManagedServiceAccount parameter to false in the BackupSchedule resource. See the following example:

apiVersion: cluster.open-cluster-management.io/v1beta1
kind: BackupSchedule
metadata:
  name: schedule-acm-msa
  namespace: open-cluster-management-backup
spec:
  veleroSchedule:
  veleroTtl: 120h
  useManagedServiceAccount: false

The default value is false. After setting the value to false, the backup operator removes all created resources, including ManagedServiceAddon, ManagedServiceAccount, and ManifestWork. Removing the resources deletes the automatic import token on the hub cluster and managed cluster.

Server-side encryption is data encryption for the application or service that receives the data at the storage location. The backup mechanism itself does not encrypt data while in-transit (as it travels to and from backup storage location), or at rest (while it is stored on disks at backup storage location). Instead it relies on the native mechanisms in the object and snapshot systems.

Best practice: Encrypt the data at the destination using the available backup storage server-side encryption. The backup contains resources, such as credentials and configuration files that need to be encrypted when stored outside of the hub cluster.

You can use serverSideEncryption and kmsKeyId parameters to enable encryption for the backups stored in Amazon S3. For more details, see the Backup Storage Location YAML. The following sample specifies an AWS KMS key ID when setting up the DataProtectionApplication resource:

spec:
  backupLocations:
    - velero:
        config:
          kmsKeyId: 502b409c-4da1-419f-a16e-eif453b3i49f
          profile: default
          region: us-east-1

Refer to Velero supported storage providers to find out about all of the configurable parameters of other storage providers.

When Velero is initially installed, Velero pod is set to the default CPU and memory limits as defined in the following sample:

resources:
 limits:
   cpu: "1"
   memory: 256Mi
 requests:
   cpu: 500m
   memory: 128Mi

The limits from the previous sample work well with some scenarios, but might need to be updated when your cluster backs up a large number of resources. For instance, when back up is run on a hub cluster that manages 2000 clusters, then the Velero pod fails due to the out-of-memory error (OOM). The following configuration allows for the backup to complete for this scenario:

  limits:
    cpu: "2"
    memory: 1Gi
  requests:
    cpu: 500m
    memory: 256Mi

To update the limits and requests for the Velero pod resource, you need to update the DataProtectionApplication resource and insert the resourceAllocation template for the Velero pod. View the following sample:

apiVersion: oadp.openshift.io/v1alpha1
kind: DataProtectionApplication
metadata:
  name: velero
  namespace: open-cluster-management-backup
spec:
...
  configuration:
...
    velero:
      podConfig:
        resourceAllocations:
          limits:
            cpu: "2"
            memory: 1Gi
          requests:
            cpu: 500m
            memory: 256Mi

Before installing VolSync on your clusters, you must have the following requirements:

To enable VolSync to replicate the persistent volume claim on one cluster to the persistent volume claim of another cluster, you must install VolSync on both the source and the target managed clusters.

VolSync does not create its own namespace, so it is in the same namespace as other OpenShift Container Platform all-namespace operators. Any changes that you make to the operator settings for VolSync also affects the other operators in the same namespace, such as if you change to manual approval for channel updates.

You can use either of two methods to install VolSync on two clusters in your environment. You can either add a label to each of the managed clusters in the hub cluster, or you can manually create and apply a ManagedClusterAddOn, as they are described in the following sections:

You can create a 1:1 asynchronous replication of persistent volumes by using an Rsync-TLS replication. You can use Rsync-TLS-based replication for disaster recovery or sending data to a remote site. When using Rsync-TLS, VolSync synchronizes data by using Rsync across a TLS-protected tunnel provided by stunnel. See the stunnel documentation for more information.

The following example shows how to configure by using the Rsync-TLS method. For additional information about Rsync-TLS, see Usage in the VolSync documentation.

Important: Use Rsync-TLS instead of Rsync for enhanced security. By using Rsync-TLS, you can avoid using elevated user permissions that are not required for replicating persistent volumes.

You can create a 1:1 asynchronous replication of persistent volumes by using an Rsync replication. You can use Rsync-based replication for disaster recovery or sending data to a remote site.

The following example shows how to configure by using the Rsync method.

A restic-based backup copies a restic-based backup copy of the persistent volume to a location that is specified in your restic-config.yaml secret file. A restic backup does not synchronize data between the clusters, but provides data backup.

Complete the following steps to configure a restic-based backup:

Note: Restic movers run without root permissions by default. If you want to run restic movers as root, run the following command to add the elevated permissions annotation to your namespace.

oc annotate namespace <namespace> volsync.backube/privileged-movers=true

Replace <namespace> with the name of your namespace.

An Rclone backup copies a single persistent volume to multiple locations by using Rclone through an intermediate object storage location, like AWS S3. It can be helpful when distributing data to multiple locations.

Complete the following steps to configure an Rclone replication:

Note: Rclone movers run without root permissions by default. If you want to run Rclone movers as root, run the following command to add the elevated permissions annotation to your namespace.

oc annotate namespace <namespace> volsync.backube/privileged-movers=true
