Creating Snapshot and Using It to Restore Volume
Last updated: 2024-09-29 17:39:38
Overview
If you need to create a snapshot of the PVC data disk to back up data, or to restore the backup snapshot data to a new PVC, you can use the CBS-CSI add-on. This document describes how to use the CBS-CSI add-on to implement data backup and restoration of PVC.
Prerequisites
You have created a TKE cluster on v1.18 or later versions. For more information, see Creating a Cluster.
You have installed the latest version of CBS-CSI.
Directions
Backing up PVC
Creating VolumeSnapshotClass
1. Use the following YAML to create a VolumeSnapshotClass object:
apiVersion: snapshot.storage.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: VolumeSnapshotClass
metadata: 
  name: cbs-snapclass
driver: com.tencent.cloud.csi.cbs
deletionPolicy: Delete
2. Run the following command to see if the VolumeSnapshotClass is created successfully:
$ kubectl get volumesnapshotclass
NAME            DRIVER                      DELETIONPOLICY   AGE
cbs-snapclass   com.tencent.cloud.csi.cbs   Delete           17m
Creating PVC snapshot VolumeSnapshot
1. This document takes new-snapshot-demo as an example to use the following YAML to create a VolumeSnapshot object.
apiVersion: snapshot.storage.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: VolumeSnapshot
metadata:
  name: new-snapshot-demo
spec:
  volumeSnapshotClassName: cbs-snapclass
  source:
    persistentVolumeClaimName: csi-pvc
2. Run the following command to check whether the Volumesnapshot and Volumesnapshotcontent objects have been created successfully. If READYTOUSE is true, the creation is successful.
$ kubectl get volumesnapshot
NAME                READYTOUSE   SOURCEPVC            SOURCESNAPSHOTCONTENT   RESTORESIZE   SNAPSHOTCLASS   SNAPSHOTCONTENT                                    CREATIONTIME   AGE
new-snapshot-demo   true         www1-ivantestweb-0                           10Gi          cbs-snapclass   snapcontent-ea11a797-d438-4410-ae21-41d9147fe610   22m            22m
$ kubectl get volumesnapshotcontent
NAME                                               READYTOUSE   RESTORESIZE   DELETIONPOLICY   DRIVER                      VOLUMESNAPSHOTCLASS   VOLUMESNAPSHOT      AGE
snapcontent-ea11a797-d438-4410-ae21-41d9147fe610   true         10737418240   Delete           com.tencent.cloud.csi.cbs   cbs-snapclass         new-snapshot-demo   22m
3. Run the following command to obtain the snapshot ID of the Volumesnapshotcontent object. The field is status.snapshotHandle (here takes snap-e406fc9m as an example). You can log in to the CVM console > Snapshot List and use the snapshot ID to check whether the snapshot exists, as shown below:
$ kubectl get volumesnapshotcontent snapcontent-ea11a797-d438-4410-ae21-41d9147fe610 -oyaml
apiVersion: snapshot.storage.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: VolumeSnapshotContent
metadata:
  creationTimestamp: "2020-11-04T08:58:39Z"
  finalizers:
  - snapshot.storage.kubernetes.io/volumesnapshotcontent-bound-protection

  readyToUse: true
  restoreSize: 10737418240
  snapshotHandle: snap-e406fc9m
Restoring data from the snapshot to a new PVC
1. This document takes the VolumeSnapshot object new-snapshot-demo created in the previous step as an example and uses the following YAML to restore volume from the snapshot.
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
metadata:
  name: restore-test
spec:
  storageClassName: cbs-csi
  dataSource:
  name: new-snapshot-demo
  kind: VolumeSnapshot
  apiGroup: snapshot.storage.k8s.io
  accessModes:
  - ReadWriteOnce
  resources:
    requests:
      storage: 10Gi
2. Run the following command to check whether the restored PVC has been created successfully. You can view the corresponding diskid in the PV (here takes disk-gahz1kw1 as an example).
$ kubectl get pvc restore-test
NAME           STATUS   VOLUME                                     CAPACITY   ACCESS MODES   STORAGECLASS   AGE

$ kubectl get pv pvc-80b98084-29a3-4a38-a96c-2f284042cf4f -oyaml

          - ap-beijing-2
  persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy: Delete
  storageClassName: cbs-csi
  volumeMode: Filesystem
status:

Note: 
 If StorageClass uses topology awareness (to schedule the Pod before creating the PV), that is, to specify volumeBindingMode: WaitForFirstConsumer, you need to deploy the Pod (mount the PVC) to trigger the PV creation (create a CBS from the snapshot and bind it to the PV).
