The Restore
API type is used as a request for the Velero server to perform a Restore. Once created, the
Velero Server immediately starts the Restore process.
Restore belongs to the API group version velero.io/v1
.
Here is a sample Restore
object with each of the fields documented:
# Standard Kubernetes API Version declaration. Required.
apiVersion: velero.io/v1
# Standard Kubernetes Kind declaration. Required.
kind: Restore
# Standard Kubernetes metadata. Required.
metadata:
# Restore name. May be any valid Kubernetes object name. Required.
name: a-very-special-backup-0000111122223333
# Restore namespace. Must be the namespace of the Velero server. Required.
namespace: velero
# Parameters about the restore. Required.
spec:
# BackupName is the unique name of the Velero backup to restore from.
backupName: a-very-special-backup
# Array of namespaces to include in the restore. If unspecified, all namespaces are included.
# Optional.
includedNamespaces:
- '*'
# Array of namespaces to exclude from the restore. Optional.
excludedNamespaces:
- some-namespace
# Array of resources to include in the restore. Resources may be shortcuts (for example 'po' for 'pods')
# or fully-qualified. If unspecified, all resources are included. Optional.
includedResources:
- '*'
# Array of resources to exclude from the restore. Resources may be shortcuts (for example 'po' for 'pods')
# or fully-qualified. Optional.
excludedResources:
- storageclasses.storage.k8s.io
# Whether or not to include cluster-scoped resources. Valid values are true, false, and
# null/unset. If true, all cluster-scoped resources are included (subject to included/excluded
# resources and the label selector). If false, no cluster-scoped resources are included. If unset,
# all cluster-scoped resources are included if and only if all namespaces are included and there are
# no excluded namespaces. Otherwise, if there is at least one namespace specified in either
# includedNamespaces or excludedNamespaces, then the only cluster-scoped resources that are backed
# up are those associated with namespace-scoped resources included in the restore. For example, if a
# PersistentVolumeClaim is included in the restore, its associated PersistentVolume (which is
# cluster-scoped) would also be backed up.
includeClusterResources: null
# Individual objects must match this label selector to be included in the restore. Optional.

# NamespaceMapping is a map of source namespace names to

# RestorePVs specifies whether to restore all included PVs
# from snapshot (via the cloudprovider).

# Actions to perform during or post restore. The only hooks currently supported are
# adding an init container to a pod before it can be restored and executing a command in a
# restored pod's container. Optional.

# Array of hooks that are applicable to specific resources. Optional.
resources:
# Name is the name of this hook.

# namespaces. Optional.

# How long to wait for a container to become ready. This should be long enough for the
# container to start plus any preceding hooks in the same container to complete. The wait
# timeout begins when the container is restored and may require time for the image to pull

waitTimeout: 5m
# How long to wait once execution begins. Defaults to 30 seconds. Optional.
execTimeout: 1m
# How to handle execution failures. Valid values are `Fail` and `Continue`. Defaults to

# Restore will be `PartiallyFailed`. Optional.
