toure/cloudstash

Backup and Restore solution for cloud platforms.

Cloudstash

Backup solution for distributed compute platforms.

• Ansible
• ReaR
• Magic, just a little

The goal of this role is to provide a means of protecting the data and configuration of a deployed cloud platform. This role will be centered around RHEL7+, RHOS, and Openshift (future releases.)

Tech

Cloudstash uses a number of open source projects to work properly:

• [Ansible] - software provisioning, configuration management, and application-deployment tool.
• [ReaR] - Linux bare metal disaster recovery solution

And of course Cloudstash itself is open source with a toure/cloudstash on GitHub.

Installation

Cloudstash requires Ansible v2.5+ to run.

Install:

$ git clone https://github.com/Toure/cloudstash.git
$ cd cloudstash

Edit the inventory file: (with your favortie editor)

[hypervisor_nodes]

**nfs_server ip should correspond with the network which is addressable by the controller nodes.
