Restore a Complete Snapshot using SCP
¶
To restore a snapshot using SCP, the Backup Daemon streams the snapshot to the target snapshot host.
- The user selects a snapshot:
- Through the Ops Manager application:
- Click on a snapshot.
- Submit their request.
- Through the API:
- Find the cluster to restore.
- Create new Restore Job for that cluster.
- Through the Ops Manager application:
- Ops Manager creates a RestoreJob document.
- The Backup Daemon service picks up the RestoreJob document.
- Backup Daemon service starts streaming the snapshot
in the requested format from the Snapshot Store to the target
snapshot host. Each Snapshot Store streams its snapshot components
through Ops Manager:
- A Blockstore streams Blocks.
- A S3 Snapshot Store streams the Blocks.
- A File System Store streams the Files.
