Veritas InfoScale™ for Kubernetes Environments 8.0.200 - Linux

Perform these steps to configure Velero:

1. Set up the InfoScale CSI environment. See CSI plugin deployment.

2. Set up the MinIO server. The 00-minio-deployment.yaml file to set up the MinIO server is included in the Velero package. You must edit the IP addresses and ports in the yaml as required.

   oc apply -f 00-minio-deployment.yaml

3. Create the Velero secret file with the credentials to access the MinIO server.

   [default]
   aws_access_key_id=<user_id>
   aws_secret_access_key=<passowrd>
   

4. Install Velero by running the below command:

   velero install \
   --provider aws \
   --features=EnableCSI \
   --plugins=velero/velero-plugin-for-csi:v0.1.0,
   velero/velero-plugin-for-aws:v1.0.0 \
   --bucket velero \
   --secret-file ./credentials-velero \
   --use-volume-snapshots=True \
   --backup-location-config region=minio,s3ForcePathStyle="true",
   s3Url=http://minio.velero.svc:9000,publicUrl=http://<ip>:<port> \
   --snapshot-location-config region=default,profile=default
   

5. Deploy the application that uses the CSI backed InfoScale volumes.

6. Create a VolumeSnapshotClass for the CSI backed volumes using the csi-infoscale-snapclass yaml.

   
   apiVersion: snapshot.storage.k8s.io/v1beta1
   kind: VolumeSnapshotClass
   metadata:
     name: csi-infoscale-snapclass
     annotations:
       snapshot.storage.kubernetes.io/is-default-class: "false"
   driver: org.veritas.infoscale
   deletionPolicy: Retain
   parameters:
     snapType: full-instant
   
    
    
   

   Run the following command to create a VolumeSnapshotClass

   oc create -f csi-infoscale-snapclass.yaml

7. After VolumeSnapshotClass is created, set velero.io/csi-volumesnapshot-class:, set to "true".

   Velero chooses this to back up InfoScale PersistentVolumeClaims.
