You can save backups to an object store such as S3 or to an NFS server. Saving to an object store is preferable because it generally offers better performance and reliability. Another advantage is that you do not need to mount and unmount the target, which can complicate failover and upgrades. For each volume, schedule at least one recurring backup. If you must run Longhorn in production without a backupstore, then schedule at least one recurring snapshot for each volume. diff --git a/content/docs/1.6.0/snapshots-and-backups/backup-and-restore/set-backup-target.md b/content/docs/1.6.0/snapshots-and-backups/backup-and-restore/set-backup-target.md index 82c100ba9..7266d2b39 100644 --- a/content/docs/1.6.0/snapshots-and-backups/backup-and-restore/set-backup-target.md +++ b/content/docs/1.6.0/snapshots-and-backups/backup-and-restore/set-backup-target.md @@ -5,7 +5,7 @@ weight: 1 A backup target is an endpoint used to access a backup store in Longhorn. A backup store is an NFS server, SMB/CIFS server, Azure Blob Storage server, or S3 compatible server that stores the backups of Longhorn volumes. The backup target can be set at `Settings/General/BackupTarget`. -Saving to an object store such as S3 or Azure is preferable, if possible, because it generally has better performance and reliability. There is also the advantage of not having to mount and unmount the target, as for NFS and SMB/CIFS, which can complicate failover and upgrades. +Saving to an object store such as S3 is preferable because it generally offers better performance and reliability.
