Info on API connect analytics extra values file - SFTP backup

  • 1.  Info on API connect analytics extra values file - SFTP backup

    Posted Tue December 15, 2020 02:25 PM
    Planning to do SFTP backup on v10.0.1.0 or v10.0.1.0 as we don't have S3. How should extra values yaml should be like during install. Dont see steps related to this in Knowledge center.
     

    spec:
  databaseBackup:
    s3provider: ibm
    host: s3.eu-gb.cloud-object-storage.appdomain.cloud/eu-standard
    path: apic-backup
    retries: 0
    credentials: mgmt-backup-secret
    schedule: "0 3 * * *"

    Any inputs would help.

    Raj,

    You can refer V2018.4.x documentation, it's clearly mentioned. S3 (Object based storage) is required only for Analytics, Management and Portal, you can backup using SFTP, please go through the documentation.

    You need to specify the SFTP server info during ISO creation. You can also update the values later.

    Hi Raj,

    Just to clarify: API Connect analytics does not support SFTP backup in either v2018 or v10. Only S3 is supported. You can open an RFE (https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/submit-request-enhancement-rfe) to have SFTP support considered for a future release.

    Kind regards,

    Mark
