Back up etcd
MKE 4k uses etcd as its backing datastore. It supports etcd back up using
mkectl etcd subcommands.
Backups of etcd are saved as local tarballs.
ℹ️
Backups of etcd are not currently integrated with the
other MKE 4k backup storage solutions.
Create an etcd backup
To create an etcd backup and save it to a local path, run:
mkectl etcd backup -f <config_file_path>You can provide a name for the backup using the --name flag. Otherwise, an
autogenerated name will be applied.
Restore an etcd backup
To restore an etcd backup, run:
mkectl etcd restore --name <backup_name> -f <config_file_path>This will restore the etcd backup to the target cluster. Be aware that this operation will result in cluster disruption, as the cluster will be restored to the state it was in at the point the backup was created.
