GET /{cluster_id}/backups/{ks_name}

Get a list of backups that exist for a keyspace in the cluster.

Path arguments:

cluster_id: The ID of a cluster returned from GET /cluster-configs.
ks_name: The keyspace scheduled for backup.

Returns data in the same format as get-backups.

POST /{cluster_id}/backups/run

Run a one time backup immediately.

Path arguments:

cluster_id: The ID of a cluster returned from GET /cluster-configs.
body: A JSON dictionary containing the options to use for running this one-time backup.

Returns a request ID.

Example: Store backup locally

Start a backup of two keyspaces immediately.

        curl -X POST
          http://127.0.0.1:8888/Test_Cluster/backups/run
          -d '{"keyspaces": ["Keyspace1", "Keyspace2"]}'

Returns a request ID.

Output:

 "fee2232c-48ac-11e2-b1b9-e0b9a54a6d93"

Example: Store backup to a destination

Start a backup of two keyspaces immediately to a destination with destination_id. You can backup to multiple destinations by passing in additional destination IDs to the destinations object.

However, any destinations specified in the destinations object are deleted after the backup has completed.

 curl -X POST
   http://127.0.0.1:8888/Test_Cluster/backups/run
   -d '{"keyspaces": ["Keyspace1", "Keyspace2"], "destinations":{"fe85800f3f4043a88fbe76fc45b22b19":{}}}'

Returns a request ID.

POST /{cluster_id}/backups/sync

Sync a snapshot to a destination.

Path arguments:

cluster_id: The ID of a cluster returned from GET /cluster-configs.
body: A JSON dictionary containing tag and destination information for the sync operation

Returns a request ID.

Example: Sync snapshot to a destination

You can backup to multiple destinations by passing in additional destination IDs to the destinations object. It’s important to note, however, that any destinations specified in the destinations object will be deleted after the backup has completed.

 curl -X POST
   http://127.0.0.1:8888/Test_Cluster/backups/sync
   -d '{"tag": "opscenter_adhoc_2017-07-28-20-04-40-UTC",     "destinations":{"fe85800f3f4043a88fbe76fc45b22b19":{}}}'

GET /{cluster_id}/backups/pit/logs

Returns a dictionary of each node and a timestamp in seconds of its most recently backed up commitlog. This information indicates what the most recent time is to which a point in time restore can be executed.

Path arguments: cluster_id: The ID of a cluster returned from GET /cluster-configs.

Example:

 curl -X GET
   http://127.0.0.1:8888/Test_Cluster/backups/pit/logs

Output:

{
  "10.240.0.3": 1450135082.502205,
  "10.240.0.4": 1450135124.02664
}

Restoring from Backups

POST /{cluster_id}/backups/restore/{tag}

Restore all data from a backup.

Path arguments:

cluster_id: The ID of a cluster returned from GET /cluster-configs.
tag: The ID of a backup to restore. This must match one of the IDs returned by get-backups.
body: A JSON dictionary of options, including:
- throttle: The streaming limit in MB/second. The default behavior is no throttle.
- excluded-nodes: The list of nodes to exclude from the restore process.
- force: True or false. True ignores problems, such as some nodes or agents being down, that normally abort restoration.
- force_schema: True or false. True ignores schema problems that normally abort restoration.
- destination: (optional) Destination ID to restore from. Leave blank if restoring from on server. Must be a destination ID in the cluster config (list-destinations)
- keyspaces: A dictionary mapping keyspace names to a dictionary of options specific to that keyspace. If this parameter is omitted, all keyspaces will be restored. If it is present, only the keyspaces listed in the dictionary will be restored. The set of accepted options per-keyspace include the following:
- column-families: A list of specific tables to restore. If omitted, all tables will be restored.
- truncate: True or false. True first truncates all tables that will be restored. By default, tables are not truncated before restoration.
- use_sstableloader: True or false. Defaults to true. If true, sstableloader is used to load that snapshot data into the cluster. If false, sstables for the snapshot will replace sstables currently in place. If not set or set to false, truncate must be set to true.
- restart_pause: The number of seconds to wait between restarting each node if a rolling restart is needed. Defaults to 60.
- keyspace_remappings: A map where the keys are the names of existing keyspaces in the snapshot and the values are the names of the keyspaces to restore to in the target cluster.

Returns a request ID.
