As a cluster system, Ceph isn't really intended to be backed up. It's
designed to take quite a beating, and preserve your data.
But that does not save me when a crypto trojan encrypts all my data. There
should always be an offline backup that can be restored in case of crypto
trojan
From a broader disaster recovery perspective,
here's how I architected my
clusters:
Our primary cluster is laid out in such a way that an entire rack can fail
without read / write being impacted, much less data integrity. On top of
that, our RadosGW was a multi-site setup which automatically sends a copy
of every object to a second cluster at a different location.
Thus my disaster recovery looks like this:
1 rack or less: no user impact, rebuild rack
2 racks: users are unable to add objects, but existing data is safe,
rebuild cluster (or as below)
Whole site: switch second site to master and continue
No backup or recovery necessary.
You might look the multi-site documentation:
https://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/radosgw/multisite/
I had a long conversation with our owner on this same topic, and how the
organization would have to move from a "Backup & Recover" mindset to a
"Disaster Recovery" mindset. It worked well for us, as we were looking to
move more towards Risk Analysis based approaches anyway.

Subject: [ceph-users] OSD backups and recovery
HI all,
what is the best approach for OSD backups and recovery? We use only
Radosgw with S3 API and I need to backup the content of S3 buckets.
Currently I sync s3 buckets to local filesystem and backup the content
using Amanda.
I believe that there must a better way to do this but I couldn't find it
in docs.
I know that one option is to setup an archive zone, but it requires an
additional ceph cluster that needs to be maintained and looked after. I
would rather avoid that.
How can I backup an entire Ceph cluster? Or individual OSDs in the way
that will allow me to recover the data correctly?
Many thanks,Ludek
