Configure backups¶

See also

Create and configure an S3 backup bucket
Configure the AWS CLI
In the server’s Pillar file, set backup.location to a bucket and prefix, and backup.directories to a dict of paths without values. You can annotate what a path must match, for example:
```
backup:
  location: ocp-coalition-backup/site
  directories:
    # Must match directory in coalition/init.sls.
    /home/coalition/public_html/:
```
Deploy the server

Sync directories¶

Note

This is used only for disaster recovery. This is not a true, immutable backup.

Attention

If this uses the same bucket as backups, ensure the IAM backup policy sets Prefix and is not scoped to the entire bucket.
