NFS Metadata Restore¶
The procedure herein details the steps required to perform a cross-cluster disaster recovery restore of an MSR 4 instance. This method is intended for environments wherein both the source and target Kubernetes clusters use the same underlying NFS storage backend along with MinIO backup storage.
Shared persistent storage significantly accelerates the recovery process by circumventing the movement of large registry data files.
Prerequisites¶
Verify that a compatible CSI driver is installed and configured in your Kubernetes cluster. For Snapshot backup, the CSI driver must support snapshot operations for your storage provider.
