Is this backup stategy okay?
Posted: Thu Aug 29, 2013 9:18 pm
Hello,
I have a three node cluster. I want to take full database and object level backups daily. I don't have any where else to put the backup files other than on the nodes themselves.
Will the following strategy be ok?
On node 1, run vbr.py scripts to do full backup and schema level backup of node 1, 2 and 3 to local storage on node 1
On node 2, run vbr.py scripts to do full backup and schema level backup of node 1, 2 and 3 to local storage on node 2
On node 3, run vbr.py scripts to do full backup and schema level backup of node 1, 2 and 3 to local storage on node 3
I figure by doing that I will have three copies of the backups.
Question: If my node 1 does fail, and I have to install a new node 1 to replace the failed node, will I be able to restore it from either the full backup on node 2 or the full backup on node 3?
Thanks in advance for help on this!!!
