How to Restore a Component to an Existing Environment

Edge for Private Cloud v4.18.01

This document covers restoration of any Edge component to an existing environment without having to re-install the component. This means the node where you are restoring the component has the same IP address or DNS name as when you performed the backup.

If you have to re-install the component see How to Reinstall and Restore Components.

Apache ZooKeeper

Restore one standalone node

  1. Remove old ZooKeeper directories:
    /opt/apigee/data/apigee-zookeeper
    /opt/apigee/etc/apigee-zookeeper.d
  2. Restore ZooKeeper data from the backup file:
    > /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service apigee-zookeeper restore backup-2016.03.17,14.40.41.tar.gz
  3. Restart all components to establish synchronization with the new restored ZooKeeper.

Restore one cluster node

  1. If a single ZooKeeper node fails, that is part of an ensemble, you can create a new node with the same hostname/IP address (follow the re-install steps mentioned in How to Reinstall and Restore Components) and when it joins the ZooKeeper ensemble it will get the latest snapshots from the Leader and start to serve clients. You do not need to restore data in this instance.

Restore a complete cluster

  1. Stop the complete cluster.
  2. Restore all ZooKeeper nodes from the backup file.
  3. Start the ZooKeeper cluster.
  4. Restart all components.

Apache Cassandra

Restore one standalone node

  1. Remove old Cassandra directory:
    /opt/apigee/data/apigee-cassandra
  2. Restore the Cassandra node from the backup file:
    /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service apigee-cassandra restore backup-2016.03.17,14.40.41.tar.gz
  3. Restart all components.

Restore one cluster node

  1. If a single Cassandra node fails, that is part of an ensemble, you can create a new node with the same hostname/IP address (follow the re-install steps mentioned in How to Reinstall and Restore Components). You only need to re-install Cassandra, you do not need to restore the data.

    When performing a restore on a non-seed node, ensure that at least one Cassandra seed node is up.

    After installing Cassandra, and the node is up, (given that RF>=2 for all keyspaces) execute the following nodetool command to initialize the node:
    opt/apigee/apigee-cassandra/bin/nodetool -h localhost repair

Restore a complete cluster

  1. Stop the complete cluster.
  2. Restore all Cassandra nodes from the backup file.
  3. Start the Cassandra cluster.
  4. Restart all components.

PostgreSQL database

PosgreSQL running standalone or as Master

  1. Stop the Management Server, Qpid Server, and Postgres Server on all nodes:
    Note: Your system can still handle requests to API proxies while these components are stopped.
    > /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-management-server stop
    > /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-qpid-server stop
    > /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-postgres-server stop
  2. Make sure PostgreSQL database is running:
    > /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service apigee-postgresql status
  3. Restore PostgreSQL database from the backup file:
    /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service apigee-postgresql restore 2016.03.17,14.40.41.dump
  4. Start the Management Server, Qpid Server, and Postgres Server on all nodes:
    > /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-management-server start
    > /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-qpid-server start
    > /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-postgres-server start

PosgreSQL running as Standby

  1. Reconfigure PostgreSQL database using the same config file you used to install it:
    /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service apigee-postgresql setup -f configFile
