In this guide we'll offer a basic strategy for disaster recovery of storage cluster in production environment. If there are some files not found on the storage manager cluster, these files can be restored by a backup server. Actually, the production cluster have an evolutive backup strategy.

Components

For restore the files lost we need the following components:

  • storage-transfer component: a java component able to transfer files from the backup storage to the producion storage cluster
  • backup server: the backup that we assume have the file lost
  • csv file: the file contains the remote path, and other information, on files lost

Storage transfer component

The storage-transfer library is a command line interface able to transfer files from a backup server to the production environment. The library uses a "csv" file where are described all the files that we want transfer. In the next paragraph will be described the "csv" format. The input parameters are:

  • ip of backup server
  • path to the csv file
