Setup

What znapzend affects

This module has the following dependencies:

Setup Requirements

Beginning with znapzend

The module supplies sensible defaults for other values, via included Hiera configuration.

This is the minimum configuration required (for local snapshots via a defaulted snapshot plan):

class { 'znapzend':
  dataset_backups => 
    [
      { 'dataset' => 'tank/dataset1' }
    ]
}

Using Puppet and Hiera:

include znapzend
znapzend::dataset_backups:
  - dataset: 'tank/dataset1'

A default source dataset plan of hourly backups kept for a day, and daily backups kept for a week will be applied.

Usage

A more complete example using most of the module features, using Puppet and Hiera:

include znapzend
  znapzend::dataset_backups:
    - dataset: nmsstore1
      config:
        destinations:
          remote:
            dst: root@foo.example.com
            dst_plan:
              - keep: 10 years
                freq: 1 year
          remote2:
            dst: root@some.other.host
            dst_plan:
              - keep: 1 month
                freq: 1 day
              - keep: 6 months
                freq: 1 week
    - dataset: tank2/home
      config:
        overrides:
          enabled: false
          mbuffer_size: 2G
        destinations:
          totank1:
            dst: root@tank1.example.com
            dst_plan:
              - keep: 1 week
                freq: 30 minutes
