๐ The complete installation guide is available on my website.
โ Change variables in the .env
to meet your requirements.
๐ก Note that the .env
file should be in the same directory as zabbix-docker-compose.yml
.
Create networks for your services before deploying the configuration using the commands:
docker network create zabbix-network
Deploy Zabbix using Docker Compose:
docker compose -f zabbix-docker-compose.yml -p zabbix up -d
The backups
container in the configuration is responsible for the following:
-
Database Backup: Creates compressed backups of the PostgreSQL database using pg_dump. Customizable backup path, filename pattern, and schedule through variables like
POSTGRES_BACKUPS_PATH
,POSTGRES_BACKUP_NAME
, andBACKUP_INTERVAL
. -
Backup Pruning: Periodically removes backups exceeding a specified age to manage storage. Customizable pruning schedule and age threshold with
POSTGRES_BACKUP_PRUNE_DAYS
andDATA_BACKUP_PRUNE_DAYS
.
By utilizing this container, consistent and automated backups of the essential components of your instance are ensured. Moreover, efficient management of backup storage and tailored backup routines can be achieved through easy and flexible configuration using environment variables.
This script facilitates the restoration of a database backup:
-
Identify Containers: It first identifies the service and backups containers by name, finding the appropriate container IDs.
-
List Backups: Displays all available database backups located at the specified backup path.
-
Select Backup: Prompts the user to copy and paste the desired backup name from the list to restore the database.
-
Stop Service: Temporarily stops the service to ensure data consistency during restoration.
-
Restore Database: Executes a sequence of commands to drop the current database, create a new one, and restore it from the selected compressed backup file.
-
Start Service: Restarts the service after the restoration is completed.
To make the zabbix-restore-database.shh
script executable, run the following command:
chmod +x zabbix-restore-database.sh
Usage of this script ensures a controlled and guided process to restore the database from an existing backup.
