Backup and restore

This topic provides guidance on the following actions:

Backing up Anaconda Server

Follow these steps to back up your instance of Anaconda Server:

  1. Install pg_dump and pg_restore.

  2. Run the following command from the install directory:

    # Replace <POSTGRES_PASSWORD> with your postgres password. You can find your postgres password here: <BASE_INSTALL_DIR>/config/postgres/postgres_db_password.txt
./repo-tools backup --database-uri postgresql://postgres:<POSTGRES_PASSWORD>@localhost:5432/postgres --keycloak-database-uri postgresql://keycloak:keycloak@localhost:5432/keycloak --blob-dir /opt/anaconda/repo/state/internal/blobs/ > repo.backup.zip

  3. Save the repo.backup.zip file to a secure location.

  4. Save the REPO_TOKEN_CLIENT_SECRET and REPO_KEYCLOAK_SYNC_CLIENT_SECRET values from the .env file in the installer directory.

Restoring Anaconda Server

Follow these steps to restore your instance of Anaconda Server:

  1. Reinstall Anaconda Server.

  2. Reinstall pg_dump and pg_restore as shown above.

  3. Copy the repo.backup.zip file.

  4. Run the following command from the install directory:

    # Replace <POSTGRES_PASSWORD> with your postgres password. You can find your postgres password here: <BASE_INSTALL_DIR>/config/postgres/postgres_db_password.txt
./repo-tools restore repo.backup.zip --database-uri postgresql://postgres:<POSTGRES_PASSWORD>@localhost:5432/postgres --keycloak-database-uri postgresql://keycloak:keycloak@localhost:5432/keycloak --blob-dir /opt/anaconda/repo/state/internal/blobs/

  5. Modify the .env file in the install directory and replace REPO_TOKEN_CLIENT_SECRET and REPO_KEYCLOAK_SYNC_CLIENT_SECRET with the values saved earlier.
