            velero backups failing for "backup resource list not found"
            Asked 2022-Feb-26 at 16:08

            After the upgrade of velero from 1.3.2 to 1.7.7 backups started failing. When describing the failing backup:

            ...

            ANSWER

            Answered 2022-Feb-13 at 13:37

            Not sure if this solves the issue for everyone, but it worked for me. After searching inside the velero source code repo, I located the following go package velero/pkg/cmd/util/output/backup_describer.go that contained the error message I found when describing the failing backup.

            See line 328 (1)

            The hints at (2) in the source code led me to search on upload issues. As I am using the velero-plugin-for-microsoft-azure to handle uploads to Azure the following GitHub issue finally gave me the nudge in the right direction.

            Seems like the velero-plugin-for-microsoft-azure required more memory (512Mi) since v1.5.3 (if I understood it correctly). The limits on my one were still at 256Mi and failing, I increased the limits to 512Mi and, presto! It started working again.
            A big shout out to David L. Smith-Uchida whose breadcrumbs led me to the solution!

            Trouble creating Velero storage location with storage access key
            Asked 2022-Jan-14 at 21:21

            i'm trying to use Velero to backup an AKS cluster but for some reason i'm unable to set the backup location in velero.

            i'm getting the error below

            I can confirm the credentials-velero file I have obtains the correct storage access key, and the secret (cloud-credentials) reflects it as well.

            Kind of at a lost as to why it's throwing me this error. Never used Velero before.

            EDIT:

            So I used the following commands to get the credential file:

            So fixed it by creating a creds.json and referencing the file while installing velero. no-secrets works well for us-east-1 but not for other regions though.

            I have an Azure Kubernetes cluster with Velero installed. A Service Principal was created for Velero, per option 1 of the instructions.

            1. Update credentials file

            First, update your credentials file (for most providers, this is credentials-velero and the contents are described in the plugin installation instructions: AWS, Azure, GCP)

            2. Update secret

            Now update the velero secret. On linux:

            I am looking to understand things regarding Google Kubernetes Cluster backup . I came across this document but this seems to be more on GCP Anthos On premises GKE Cluster .

            https://cloud.google.com/anthos/gke/docs/on-prem/archive/1.1/how-to/administration/backing-up

            I saw few blogs talking of a GKE feature to create a clone of existing GKE Cluster but I cannot find any option in GCP Console to create new cluster by cloning an existing GKE Cluster.

            Can somebody please confirm if this cloning feature is still available in GKE or it is deprecated ?

            Apart from Cloning a GKE Cluster , we need to take backup of Cluster resources and PersistentVolumes. It seems Veloro is a useful tool for this and it is GKE aware.

            You can in fact create a duplicate! By going into:

            • Cloud Console (Web UI) -> Kubernetes Engine -> CLUSTER-NAME -> Duplicate.

            Disclaimer!

            This option will create a duplicate of your cluster but it will not copy the workload (Pods, Deployments, Services, Persistent Volumes, etc.)

            Transferring your workload will heavily depend on the resources that you are using. You will need to carefully consider all of the resources and choose the solution most appropriate to your use case.

            Solution mentioned in the question:

            Storage specific:

            It could be beneficiary to add that you could also take a different approach and use tools that are designed to provision resources multiple times. Once created "scripts" could be used multiple times (on multiple clusters when migrating etc.). Examples of such tools:

            kubectl: describe annotations for persistent volume claims
            Asked 2020-Sep-28 at 14:47

            New to kubectl. I have been tasked with generating a report (via bash script) that retrieves specific annotations from persistent volume claims (PVC), and I am having trouble.

            From what I am told, there is at least 1 annotation that describes if a PVC is backed up by Velero or not. This annotation is stored within the PVC.

            Chasing a red herring with the describe sub-command it seems. The annotation output is hidden metadata that is accessible via kubectl get using the -o flag. For example:

            kubectl get persistentvolumeclaims -o json

            and can be further parsed by piping the output to jq
