Hi,

what are the options to consistently backup and restore
data out of a ceph cluster?

- RBDs can be snapshotted.
- Data on RBDs used inside VMs can be backed up using tools from the guest.
- CephFS data can be backed up using rsync are similar tools

What about object data in other pools?

There are two scenarios where a backup is needed:

- disaster recovery, i.e. the while cluster goes nuts
- single item restore, because PEBKAC or application error

Is there any work on progress to cover these?

Regards
