Service protection
The IBM Storage Fusion Backup & Restore service protection involves the backup of control plane to a S3 bucket.
In case of cluster failure, use the IBM Storage Fusion
Service Protection to recover all namespaces from the failed cluster into a new cluster. However, it
assumes that the service protection backup got created and all application backups exist before the
cluster failure. The high-level steps to backup and restore the service:
- Create a new instance of OpenShift® Container Platform cluster or use an exiting healthy cluster.
- Install Backup & Restore service.
- The Service Protection Recover service uses the backup to restore all resources used by the Backup & Restore service such as backup policy, location, policy assignment, Backup CRs.
- Restore all other applications from Backup CRs.
