support backup and restore a standalone or frontend install table of contents periodic backups of chef infra server are essential to managing and maintaining a healthy configuration and ensuring the

or later chef server ctl for the majority of use cases chef server ctl backup is the recommended way to take backups of the chef infra server use the following commands for managing backups of chef infra server data and for restoring those backups backup the backup subcommand is used to back up all chef infra server data this subcommand requires rsync to be installed on the chef infra server before running the command requires a chef server ctl reconfigure before running the command should not be run in a chef infra server configuration with an external postgresql database use knife ec backup instead puts the initial backup in the var opt chef backup directory as a tar gz file move this backup to a new location for safe keeping options this subcommand has the following options y yes use to specify if the chef infra server can go offline during tar gz based backups pg options use to specify and pass additional options postgresql during backups see the postgresql documentation for more information c config only backup the chef infra server configuration without backing up data t timeout set the maximum amount of time in seconds to wait for shell commands default 600 this option should be set to greater than 600 for backups taking longer than 10 minutes h help show help message syntax this subcommand has the following syntax chef server ctl backup restore the restore subcommand is used to restore chef infra server data from a backup that was created by the backup subcommand this subcommand may also be used to add chef infra server data to a newly installed server do not run this command in a chef infra server configuration that uses an external postgresql database use knife ec backup instead this subcommand requires rsync installed on the chef infra server before running the command requires a chef server ctl reconfigure before running the command ideally the restore server will have the same fqdn as the server that you backed up if the restore server has a different fqdn then replace the fqdn in the etc opscode chef server rb replace the fqdn in the etc opscode chef server running json delete the old ssl certificate key and ssl conf file from var opt opscode nginx ca if you use a ca issued certificate instead of a self signed certificate copy the ca issued certificate and key into var opt opscode nginx ca update the etc chef client rb file on each client to point to the new server fqdn run chef server ctl reconfigure run chef server ctl restore options this subcommand has the following options c cleanse use to remove all existing data on the chef infra server it will be replaced by the data in the backup archive d directory staging dir directory use to specify that the path to an empty directory to be used during the restore process this directory must have enough disk space to expand all data in the backup archive pg options use to specify and pass additional options postgresql during backups see the postgresql documentation for
