* Obtaining credentials from env variables.
|
||||
- For AWS S3 compatible storages set env variable `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`.
|
||||
Also you can set env variable `AWS_SHARED_CREDENTIALS_FILE` with path to credentials file.
|
||||
- For GCE cloud storage set env variable `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS` with path to credentials file.
|
||||
- For Azure storage either set env variables `AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME` and `AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_KEY`, or `AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_CONNECTION_STRING`.
|
||||
|
||||
* Usage with s3 custom url endpoint. It is possible to use `vmbackup` with s3 compatible storages like minio, cloudian, etc.
|
||||
You have to add a custom url endpoint via flag:

|
||||
|
||||
# for aws gov region
|
||||
-customS3Endpoint=https://s3-fips.us-gov-west-1.amazonaws.com
|
||||
Please, note that `vmbackup` will use credentials provided by cloud providers metadata service [when applicable](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmbackup.html#using-cloud-providers-metadata-service).
|
||||
|
||||
### Using cloud providers metadata service
|
||||
|
||||
`vmbackup` and `vmbackupmanager` will automatically use cloud providers metadata service in order to obtain credentials if they are running in cloud environment
|
||||
and credentials are not explicitly provided via flags or env variables.
|
||||
|
||||
### Providing credentials in Kubernetes
|
||||
|
||||
The simplest way to provide credentials in Kubernetes is to use [Secrets](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret/)
|
||||
and inject them into the pod as environment variables. For example, the following secret can be used for AWS S3 credentials:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
apiVersion: v1
|
||||
kind: Secret
|
||||
metadata:
|
||||
name: vmbackup-credentials
|
||||
data:
|
||||
access_key: key
|
||||
secret_key: secret
|
||||
```
|
||||
And then it can be injected into the pod as environment variables:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
...
|
||||
env:
|
||||
- name: AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
|
||||
valueFrom:
|
||||
secretKeyRef:
|
||||
key: access_key
|
||||
name: vmbackup-credentials
|
||||
- name: AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
|
||||
valueFrom:
|
||||
secretKeyRef:
|
||||
key: secret_key
|
||||
name: vmbackup-credentials
|
||||
...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
* Run `vmbackup -help` in order to see all the available options:
|
||||
A more secure way is to use IAM roles to provide tokens for pods instead of managing credentials manually.
|
||||
|
||||
For AWS deployments it will be required to configure [IAM roles for service accounts](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/iam-roles-for-service-accounts.html).
|
||||
In order to use IAM roles for service accounts with `vmbackup` or `vmbackupmanager` it is required to create ServiceAccount with IAM role mapping:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
apiVersion: v1
|
||||
kind: ServiceAccount
|
||||
metadata:
|
||||
name: monitoring-backups
|
||||
annotations:
|
||||
eks.amazonaws.com/role-arn: arn:aws:iam::{ACCOUNT_ID}:role/{ROLE_NAME}
|
||||
```
|
||||
And [configure pod to use service account](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-service-account/).
|
||||
After this `vmbackup` and `vmbackupmanager` will automatically use IAM role for service account in order to obtain credentials.
|
||||
|
||||
For GCP deployments it will be required to configure [Workload Identity](https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/how-to/workload-identity).
|
||||
In order to use Workload Identity with `vmbackup` or `vmbackupmanager` it is required to create ServiceAccount with Workload Identity annotation:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
---
|
||||
apiVersion: v1
|
||||
kind: ServiceAccount
|
||||
metadata:
|
||||
name: monitoring-backups
|
||||
annotations:
|
||||
iam.gke.io/gcp-service-account: {sa_name}@{project_name}.iam.gserviceaccount.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
And [configure pod to use service account](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-service-account/).
|
||||
After this `vmbackup` and `vmbackupmanager` will automatically use Workload Identity for servicpe account in order to obtain credentials.
|
||||
|
||||
### Using custom S3 endpoint
|
||||
|
||||
Usage with s3 custom url endpoint. It is possible to use `vmbackup` with s3 compatible storages like minio, cloudian, etc.
|
||||
You have to add a custom url endpoint via flag:
|
||||
|
||||
- for MinIO
|
||||
```console
|
||||
-customS3Endpoint=http://localhost:9000
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- for aws gov region
|
||||
```console
|
||||
-customS3Endpoint=https://s3-fips.us-gov-west-1.amazonaws.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Command-line flags

||||

||||
