After you create a backup schedule as described in Create a backup schedule for Ceph nodes, you may also need to create an instant backup of a Ceph OSD node metadata or a Ceph Monitor node.
Note
The procedure below does not cover the backup of the Ceph OSD node data.
To create an instant backup of a Ceph node:
Verify that you have completed the steps described in Create a backup schedule for Ceph nodes.
Log in to a Ceph node. For example, to cmn01.
Run the following script:
/usr/local/bin/ceph-backup-runner-call.sh
Verify that a complete backup was created locally:
ls /var/backups/ceph/full
Verify that the complete backup was rsynced to the ceph backup server
node from the Salt Master node:
salt -C 'I@ceph:backup:server' cmd.run 'ls /srv/volumes/backup/ceph/full'
