Backup prerequisites

The requisites for backup are fairly simple:

  • We have a database for which backup has to be taken.
  • The Swift system is configured and accessible. (In DevStack, please check if the Swift services are enabled.)
  • There is space in the Swift system to store backups.
  • All required configuration options are in place.

In our case, we don't have to worry about the last point as we will leave the entire configuration to the default values. Also, we have the second and third point taken care of. Since we are using MySQL as the database, the first point also has been satisfied. (Please note that while creating the DIB image, we installed the InnoDB tool by using the ubuntu-mysql element provided. So, we are good to go.)
