Verifying the recovery of your primary cluster

When your IBM® Cloud Pak for Network Automation instance is ready, verify that your data is restored.

oc get orchestration

NAME STATUS
default Ready

1. Reconfigure your authentication setup and reassign roles to your IBM Cloud Pak for Network Automation users.
   For example, if you are using LDAP, you must reconfigure LDAP the connection and reassign roles to your users. For more information, see the following topics:
   • Configuring an LDAP connection
   • Role-based access control (RBAC) for clusters in the IBM Cloud® Paks documentation
   • Default roles and permissions

   For information about configuring SAML or OIDC, see IBM Cloud Pak foundational services Authentication types.
2. Reconfigure LDAP and assign appropriate roles to your IBM Cloud Pak for Network Automation users. For more information about reconfiguring LDAP and assigning appropriate roles, see the following topics:
   • Configuring an LDAP connection in the IBM Cloud Paks documentation
   • Role-based access control (RBAC) for clusters in the IBM Cloud Paks documentation
   • Default roles and permissions
3. Log in to IBM Cloud Pak for Network Automation and verify your data. Log in to the following URL:

   https://<cluster_url>/cp4na/ui

   To get the value for <cluster_url>, run the following command:

   oc get routes -l component=ibm-nginx

   NAME HOST/PORT PATH SERVICES PORT TERMINATION WILDCARD
   cpd cp4na_namespace.apps.cp4na.cp.fyre.ibm.com ibm-nginx-svc ibm-nginx-https-port passthrough/Redirect None

   Replace <cluster_url> with the value for HOST/PORT. For example, the URL might be:

   https://<cp4na_namespace>.apps.cp4na.cp.fyre.ibm.com/cp4na/ui

4. Configure backups for the cluster. For more information about configuring backups, see Configuring backup and restore.
   Tip: Use a new S3 bucket for the backup to make sure that data from your recovery cluster remains separate from the data of your previous primary cluster.
