kandi X-RAY | PlexBackup Summary

PlexBackup is a PowerShell library typically used in Backup Recovery, Continuous Backup applications. PlexBackup has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

PlexBackup.ps1 (or, briefly, PlexBackup) is a PowerShell script that can back up and restore a Plex instance on a Windows system. The script backs up the Plex database, Windows registry key, and app data folders essential for the Plex operations (it ignores the non-essential files, such as logs or crash reports). And it makes sure that Plex is not running when the backup job is active (which may take hours). And it can send email to you, too. IMPORTANT: The script will not back up media (video, audio, images) or Plex program files. You must use different backup techniques for those. For example, you can keep your media files on a RAID 5 disk array. And you don't really need to back up Plex program files, since you can always download them. But for everything else, PlexBackup is your guy.

How to disable azure cosmos db continious backup

Asked 2022-Feb-22 at 10:59

I enabled the Azure cosmos DB continuous backup for one of my Cosmos DBs.
How can I disable it? It just says you have successfully enrolled in continuous backup.

I am not sure if you have seen this message in the portal when you created the account/also mentioned in the doc

"You will not be able to switch between the backup policies after the account has been created"

since you need to select either "Periodic" or "Continuous" at the creation of Cosmos Account, it becomes mandatory.

Update:

You will not see the above in portal anymore, you can Switch from "Periodic" to "Continous" on an existing account and that cannot be reverted. You can read more here.

QUESTION

Consistency of Continuous backup of Azure Cosmos DB

Asked 2021-Nov-25 at 17:15

What would be the consistency of the continuous backup of the write region if the database is using bounded staleness consistency? Will it be equivalent to strong consistent data assuming no failovers happened?

Thanks Guru

Backups made from any secondary region will have data consistency defined by the guarantees provided by the consistency level chosen. In the case of strong consistency, all secondary region backups will have completely consistent data.

Bounded staleness will have data that may have stale or inconsistent data inside the defined staleness window (minimum 300 seconds or 100k writes). Outside of that staleness window the data will be consistent.

Data for the weaker consistency levels will have no guarantees for consistency from backups in secondary regions.

QUESTION

Mongo atlas recommends cloud provider snaphots for backup - Is it effective?

Asked 2020-May-19 at 10:12

MongoDB has deprecated the continuous back up of data. It has recommended using CPS (Cloud provider snapshots). As far as I understood, snapshots isn't really going to be effective compared to continuous backup coz, if system breaks, then we can only be able to restore the data till the previous snapshot which isn't gonna make the database up-to-date or close to it atleast.

Am I missing something here in my understanding?

Cloud provider snapshots can be combined with point in time restore to give the recovery point objective you require. With oplog based restores you can get granularity of one second.

Vulnerabilities

No vulnerabilities reported

Install PlexBackup

Every time you run a new backup job, the script will create a backup snapshot folder. The name of the folder will reflect the timestamp of when the script started. Use the Keep switch to specify how many backup snapshots you want to keep: 0 (keep all previously created backups), 1 (keep the current backup snapshot only), 2 (keep the current backup snapshot and one before it), 3 (keep the current backup snapshot and two most recent snapshots), and so on. The default value is 3.
