Restore Plugin Parameters

CommunityEnterprise

During restore, the Kubernetes Plugin will use the same parameters which were set for the backup job and saved in the catalog. During restore, you may change any of the parameters described in chapter Generic Plugin Parameters and Backup and Restore Plugin Parameters. In addition to the options used for backups, the outputformat option can be used during restore. This option specifies the file format when restoring to a local filesystem. You can choose the restore output in JSON or YAML. If not defined the restored files will be saved in YAML.

outputformat=[json|yaml]

specifies the file format when restoring to a local filesystem as described above.

This parameter is optional.

new_namespace=<namespace>

specifies an alternative namespace to restore the selected objects. If the namespace doesn’t exist, the Kubernetes plugin will create a new one.

new_name=<name>

specifies an alternative name to restore the selected objects. We advise using it solely when you choose a single resource.

new_storageclass=<storageclass_name>

specifies an alternative storageclass name to restore the selected Persistent Volume Claim along with its associated data.

mac_address=[keep|new|MAC]

specifies whether to retain the existing MAC address or assign a new MAC address to all VM network interfaces.

run_after_restore=[yes|no]

specifies whether the virtual machine should be started automatically after the restore process completes.
