Hi all,
I have a working development environment for ovirt-engine and I want
to verify
someone else's gerrit change. Is there a documented proceedure for
backing up
the engine db so that, after checking out the new code and updating
the db
schema, I can revert to my old code and DB (schema and data).
You can use pg_dump for backup and psql for restore :
backup:
pg_dump -C -E UTF8 --column-inserts --disable-dollar-quoting --disable-triggers -U
postgres --format=p -f<backupfile> <dbname>
restore:
psql -U postgres -f<backupfile> template1
Eli,
Can we have a script for backup and restore DB in the repo?
I see we have backup_db.sql any use of it?
If you guys are interested, I have updated the tool to work with
systemctl/enginedb and tested under Fedora 16:
Here my use:
# mkdir /engine-backup-db
# chmod +x engine-db-tool.py
backup manually
=============
./engine-db-tool.py --backup --path=/engine-db-backup
Stopping jboss-as service...
Backuping database:
/engine-db-backup/dump_RHEVDB_BACKUP_2012-04-03-15:05.sql
Starting jboss-as service...
Done
restore manually
=============
# ./engine-db-tool.py --restore
--path=/engine-db-backup/dump_RHEVDB_BACKUP_2012-04-03-15:05.sql
Stopping jboss-as service...
Restoring database:
/engine-db-backup/dump_RHEVDB_BACKUP_2012-04-03-15:05.sql
Starting jboss-as service...
Done
Crontab
=======
# crontab -e (adding to my crontab user)
# Every day 18:00 backup db
00 18 * * * /path-to/engine-db-tool.py --backup --path=/engine-backup-db
